1
00:00:00,450 --> 00:00:02,140
Hi and welcome to the course.
2
00:00:02,190 --> 00:00:07,650
My name is Scott Harris and I thought I'd do this introductory video just to kind of introduce you guys
3
00:00:07,770 --> 00:00:12,840
to myself, who I am and tell you about the course, tell you how you should do the course.
4
00:00:12,930 --> 00:00:17,280
how you should move through the course and also that we can kind of, even though I don't get to know you guys
5
00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:22,290
very well, that you get to know me and that hopefully it will be a beneficial experience for you
6
00:00:22,290 --> 00:00:23,910
moving through this course.
7
00:00:23,910 --> 00:00:30,780
So first things first; I really really feel like this course is my masterwork probably of all the kind
8
00:00:30,780 --> 00:00:33,070
of course content that I've ever done.
9
00:00:33,150 --> 00:00:40,170
It's got so many valuable elements to it that have to do with character design and drawing characters
10
00:00:40,410 --> 00:00:44,880
comprehensively, drawing characters well, drawing characters appealingly and as you move through
11
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:49,920
the course, I think you're going to find that this isn't a course that you kind of you know- you do the
12
00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:54,060
whole course and maybe you've had experience before, you know you do a course and just you feel like, "oh
13
00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:58,760
you know there were one or two good nuggets of information in that course." I'm hoping that you'll
14
00:00:58,770 --> 00:01:05,129
feel like "wow! This course really really took me maybe from somewhere where you didn't know how to draw characters at
15
00:01:05,129 --> 00:01:06,150
all to like
16
00:01:06,150 --> 00:01:07,890
Now I really feel like I know what I'm doing.
17
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:13,920
Or if you have started drawing a bit or you're intermediate at drawing, you feel like "Wow! This has amped
18
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:15,240
up my skills so much".
19
00:01:15,390 --> 00:01:21,600
And that also that these concepts, these very core concepts, as they become part of how you draw, you feel
20
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:23,460
like "Wow! this course was worth it for me".
21
00:01:23,470 --> 00:01:32,670
But that is my hope and I really do hope that you guys really become great character artists and are
22
00:01:32,670 --> 00:01:37,530
able to draw in a multitude of styles and any kinds of characters you want with appeal, with feeling,
23
00:01:37,530 --> 00:01:40,650
with story, with emotion, and what have you.
24
00:01:40,650 --> 00:01:45,660
So yes that's kind of how I feel about the course and how I want to kind of present the course to you.
25
00:01:46,110 --> 00:01:52,920
and also that the Course presentation- while the theories and the concepts are going to be pretty serious
26
00:01:53,250 --> 00:01:54,310
in tone;
27
00:01:54,390 --> 00:01:59,250
I'm going to be presenting the course very much in a in a casual kind of way- as if I were teaching you
28
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:00,660
in a class.
29
00:02:00,820 --> 00:02:05,670
So I don't think you need to stress about hectic theoretical studies or anything like that.
30
00:02:05,850 --> 00:02:11,750
But definitely I'll do my best to be as clear and concise as possible so that you're grasping the theories
31
00:02:11,790 --> 00:02:17,820
quickly and that you can then proceed to practice them and do exercises to get them into your
32
00:02:17,820 --> 00:02:19,360
system and get used to them.
33
00:02:19,650 --> 00:02:26,250
So how I envision you guys doing the course, is you watch all the videos first one time, right.
34
00:02:26,250 --> 00:02:27,830
You go through every single video.
35
00:02:27,870 --> 00:02:32,350
You watch them, you don't do any exercises yet, you just watch, you learn, you try to absorb right.
36
00:02:32,490 --> 00:02:37,920
And then on your second run through, you go through the course and you do all the exercises.
37
00:02:37,920 --> 00:02:44,540
It's extremely crucial that you put in the time and the dedication to drawing out all the exercises,
38
00:02:44,550 --> 00:02:47,150
doing the drawings required in each of the sections.
39
00:02:47,190 --> 00:02:52,700
And the reason is, whilst art is definitely extremely more theoretical than people think it is,
40
00:02:52,730 --> 00:02:58,500
I would liken it to playing a musical instrument: you may know everything there is
41
00:02:58,500 --> 00:03:03,270
to know about a guitar or a particular instrument. You may know all the theory all that music theory.
42
00:03:03,270 --> 00:03:08,790
But if you don't pick up a guitar and play it the theory is kind of useless. At the same time using the
43
00:03:08,790 --> 00:03:13,110
same kind of analogy, you can realize that- you know a lot of people will say "Well how do you get better
44
00:03:13,110 --> 00:03:16,480
at art?" and they'll reply they'll be like "You just practice just practice more".
45
00:03:16,500 --> 00:03:22,830
Well if you could imagine yourself picking up a guitar and you just think well the more I keep strumming
46
00:03:22,830 --> 00:03:24,500
I'm going to learn to become a better guitarist.
47
00:03:24,510 --> 00:03:26,010
Obviously that's not going to happen right.
48
00:03:26,010 --> 00:03:27,100
That's not the case.
49
00:03:27,180 --> 00:03:32,520
You're going to need the theory. So there is a duality if you wish, an equilibrium between theory and
50
00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:38,400
practical when it comes to art and hopefully this course will have you engaging comprehensively in both
51
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:39,290
things.
52
00:03:39,300 --> 00:03:39,710
All right.
53
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:42,460
I guess that's about it for the introduction to the course.
54
00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:43,550
I hope you enjoy it.
55
00:03:43,690 --> 00:03:44,950
I hope you have a good time.
56
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:47,280
I hope that you definitely keep in touch with me.
57
00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:53,580
Keep in contact with me, send me you artwork, send me your exercises as you're doing the course, and I wish you all
58
00:03:53,580 --> 00:03:54,570
the best.
59
00:03:54,570 --> 00:03:59,580
I'm very very optimistic and hopeful that this course is going to be absolutely awesome for you.
60
00:03:59,580 --> 00:04:00,990
So yeah let's get started.
61
00:04:00,990 --> 00:04:01,740
Enough chit chat.
62
00:04:01,740 --> 00:04:02,920
Let's get started.
