All language subtitles for 033 Section 4 Conclusion.en

Congratulations on making it to the end of this section so the section was a drawing bootcamp and I

took it through a bunch of exercises to really get your drawing skills up to par so that you start building

up that muscle memory and you have more control over your pencil and a better understanding about drawing

and the really important parts of it.

So let's do a quick review of what we learned in this section.

So the first thing we learn about is that we always want to remember to warm up.

Warming up is really important so that we can really get our muscles loose and also get our creative

mind loose.

Next we talked about construction lines and wire frames and how they help us understand the form of

an object.

So we practice doing that a lot.

Then we talked about how to rotate objects in our head three dimensionally and basically we have to

do is one side of your object will become squashed in the other side will become stretched as it rotates

around.

Then we talked about overlap and how it creates space in your drawings.

So for example a foot standing on the ground if you move the angle of the camera up a little bit you'll

see that the the back foot will be a little bit higher so that adds depth because we created that overlap

of one leg over the other leg avoid parallels and tangents in your drawing.

So if you remember tangents that's where a line is just kind of merge into each other that looks really

bad.

Or where lines.

So like a corner for example touches the edge of a line that looks really bad and parallels that's going

to be when things look exactly the same on both sides of your geometry.

So for example let's say that we have a human being standing there.

If both their arms are in the same pose that's gonna be really born.

If you can move one of those into a different pose.

So they're not doing the same thing that's going to be a lot more interesting.

All right.

Then we learn how to draw light and loose.

So that's really important when we're doing our roughs.

We want to make sure that we're not pushing too hard with her pencil and we want to keep it nice and

loose because if we get out tight and stuff we're not gonna be able to be as creative or really explore

our character design.

So we want to make sure that we're being really loose with our pencil.

Then we talked about how to refine your drawing.

So first we start with the rough number one which is going to be very light and very loose.

This usually consists of simple shapes and forms and sometimes you block out some of the areas like

the eyes and maybe the shape of the hair.

And then we do a rough number two which rough number two is going to be where we start introducing more

detail into there and our roughs are usually done with a colored pencil.

You don't have to but we want to make sure that we're at least doing it lightly and loosely.

And then finally we go in with a darker pencil or a different colored pencil and we can draw in our

final character design on our roughs.

Then we talked about drawing style and how we can create our own drawing style by one studying and copying

other artists so that they kind of absorb into our creative mind.

And we have a visual understanding of their style and then also just drawing from life and combining

those things together and some of your own creative ideas to create your own style and remember it can

take a while to get your own creative style.

So don't be super frustrated if you don't have one right away.

Then we talked about using references for your character designs.

So there's two types of references.

The first one is going to be copying so that's where you just look at some reference and you literally

copy exactly what you see.

You might change some things about it but for the most part you're just copying it exactly how you see

it and applying it to your drawing.

So this can consist of a pose a hairstyle clothing.

It can be a lot of different things.

Then there's going to be observation.

So observation is just going to be where you look at something say for example a piece of clothing and

then you redraw but you might change the angle you're just looking at it for informational purposes.

So maybe you want to know where the pockets on a vest would be.

Or maybe you want to know the general shape of a hairstyle.

So that would be observational reference and both of them are fine using your drawings as long as you're

not actually plagiarizing somebodies work.

If people can recognize somebody else's work in your work then that's probably plagiarizing.

And then lastly we want to build up our visual libraries.

And the reason for this is because you might think you know what something looks like but when you go

to try to draw it it looks really bad.

And so we want to draw as many things as possible so that we can remember what those things look like

and we can pull them out of our imagination or our head whenever we want and put them down on paper.

All right.

So that brings us to the end of this section.

Thanks for watching and I'll see you guys in the next 1.
