Practical Vehicle Design for Film and Television
with Matthew Savage
Description
Designing within specific parameters can only make you a stronger designer and almost always, in the film industry, physically building props and sets comes with a wide set of restrictions. In this workshop, Concept Artist Matthew Savage will take you through the process of transforming a commercially available vehicle by stripping it down to its chassis and designing a new sci-fi vehicle over the existing frame. Starting by building a rough block model to be used as a sketching underlay, we start in Photoshop before moving to MODO for modeling, texturing and adding decals without having to UV the model. Finally, we move back into Photoshop for finalizing our finished piece of production ready concept art.
