Tutorial Video: 01_Setting Up Video

Hey Guys,

I have just completed an introductory video to how and what I teach for the purposes of allowing others not-so-near to the Industry (or Studios) to gain access to some of the practices and techniques of Costumed Gesture Drawing and how it is used in the Animation and Entertainment Industry. Let me know what you think and if you think it's helpful if you find a moment some time this week.




Best,

MAC

I will not approve on it. I think precise post. Particularly the appellation attracted me to read the whole story.

Thanks guys, I am very happy to shed some much needed light on a very important subject manner for the Animation and Entertainment Industry. I will have more coming that is me drawing and talking through some of the tricks and technique's needed to acquire these skill sets.

Andrei,
Thank you very much.

Joseph,
Thank you very much, I wanted to make sure to show the diversity you can explore along the way and all under the banner of "Costumed Gesture Drawing."

PanicAttak,
There will be many more videos to come, I promise to post more as soon as they are done being edited.

Rad Sechrist,
Thanks man, I will be there January 25th. If you're up to it please let the powers that be know that you would be interested in more sessions. I was told that they want to see how the artists feel and if they are comfortable with my style of teaching before they book more.

Benny,
Thank you. Thank you very much.

Anonymous,
I'm not sure why you would use "appellation" as I am sure there is no story here. But I would be more than happy to describe anything you are interested in if you are serious.

Best,

MAC

Very informative, thanks Mark. I can't wait to explore and experiment with different mediums more. Within the next month or so, we should be 100% settled and then I can concentrate on all the fun stuff:)

Andy Latham said...

Thanks a lot for this Mark, I really hope you do more. There is absolutely nowhere near me to learn this stuff so resources like this are a godsend!

:D
