Fall term is approaching!

By mentorship

The beginning of the Fall term is fast approaching so if you were thinking of enrolling in a course to sharpen your design skills, its time to enroll!

Join our class:
– if you want to gain more insight on the film industry from a concept art perspective
– if you want to challenge yourself to create a range of different designs around a story of your choice
– if you want to get professional feedback on your designs to help push your work forward

During the 10 weeks of the course we’ll be touching on a variety of different design topics (characters, props, environment, storyboards, keyframe) which will make you stretch in areas that might not be your main strength.
In the classes we’ll be talking about the entertainment industry, core design principles and some tools and techniques.

At the end of the course you should have a presentation with a set of cohesive designs that showcase your skills and thinking process.
We’ll also talk about how you could use this material to put together a professional pitch presentation.

CGMA

By mentorship

One of the most exciting news we have for you in the winter is that we’ll have a studio mentorship class on CGMA in the winter term.
The topic we’ll explore is IP development for production.

During the 10 week course, our lead artists will guide you through the process of creating a pitch package, talking about character, environment and prop design, sketching up a storyboard sequence and painting keyframe illustrations. The aim is to put together a cohesive design package based on a chosen story, to showcase  that you can carry a visual language across various elements of a project.

There’ll be weekly lecture videos to explain theory and how we apply it to our design process, you’ll get personal, recorded feedback on your homework assignment and you’ll also have the chance to ask us questions live on  weekly Q&A sessions.

The course is taught by:

Mark Molnar, Gaspar Gombos – Founders and Lead artists of Pixoloid studios
David Metzger, Janos Gardos – Senior artists

Check out the course overview and feel free to reach out if you have any questions about it!
