Cool Storyboard Artist Workshop

[RutgerRaateland]

Cool! I like this kind of stuff!

[goliathpictures]

Knowing how to draw is secondary to being a storyboard artist. Sure anyone can draw but can they tell a story with their art? Or figure out an action sequence for a film? I'd like to see your experience!

[wildnhappy1]

This is truly a load of donkey testicals.everyone on the planet can draw,everyone.but in order to be "professional" you must observe your surroundings in detail.art is like everything else that needs practice to perfect.dont try fooling people to think going for a look round a studio will instantly make them picasso.if anyone wants to draw better finish your work,then look at it and question yourself as much as possible..'is this arm bigger than that one?' 'is his head too big'..think logically

I've been trying to look this up everywhere, but what is the average expected workload for a storyboard artist per day? Is it 20 frames? 40 frames? More? I know there are, of course, ideal numbers, but what are the realistic ones?

Like, if you're a comics publisher, and you're expecting your artists to pencil 2 pages a day straight from script, then you're way out of line. Based on comics logic 20-30 frames a day SHOULD make sense for a storyboard artist .

Yeah..maybe you should have left the part about "to be a pro you need to be trained by one" out. :x

[ohthisguy]

is the workshop still going to be taught?

[cwhipps22]

The idea that "to be a professional, you must study with a professional" is shot down by googling the name Leonardo da Vinci. He sold his first artwork (a shield with a dragon) BEFORE he ever went to art school. (google da Vinci, wikipedia... I'd have included the link, but youtube has decided we shouldn't do this... so sad)

Tea42formenyou your way behind the 8 ball most professional storyboard artist come from top art institute and are l given the opportunitie to learn under an established storyboard artist. Part of it is talent and practice. Its not only drawing its also cinematic visualization of camera angles, lighting ,vfx, blocking and more. which i see David gives good guidelines, not fukky available on websites. If your not a professional in the field then you do not really know what your talking about.

[Tea42formenyou]

To be a pro artist you have to learn from a pro artist, what a bunch of bull, you can teach yourself to become a pro artist. Infact a lot of people including some of the best in the world are self taught and prob. 10 time better. Not saying you are bad, that is not what I am trying to get at but telling people that is like telling people that if you want to wright a book you have to learn from from bestselling author.

[goliathpictures]

Sorry, your wrong. Learning from a professional can get you a lot farther than on your own. Also if you never read bestselling author's books, how would you know what your writing is any good?

[Tea42formenyou]

ah I didn't say the book had to be any good, all I said was to wright a book. Art isn't something you have talent at, its a skill. Which mean you have to practice at it. Now with the internet you don't have to work with a pro artist to become a pro artist. True you need to guidance, which there are a lot of websites that can give you feed back and point you in the right direction. I know a lot of pro artists that got to that level by doing studies, most of the time by them selfs.

[goliathpictures]

Learn the way you want. But what I'm offering is 25 years of experience as a professional "working" storyboard artist for those who want to move ahead in the profession.

@Tea

Ur right about becoming a pro (u can achieve this on ur own), but what GP is talking about is industry expectations, which is HUGE. U might get ur own -

'IF" u can, but why not take sum1 up on it who's offering 2 teach u? Its faster & less risky. Theres a LOT about the industry that sum1 like GP can teach (i.e. storytelling, relationships, etc ). I'm sure there's a lot more under the surface 2. BTW: practice can improve skill but doesn't always make 1 an artist. Either u hav it or u dont.

@Tea42formenyou

I wish art was all skill t\ but tell that to the many Frank Frazetta wannabe who are frustrated with years of trying and realizing they should of stuck to clerical work or some other meaningless job. Art of exceptional standard is 33% natural ability the rest is experience and practices. If you have that 33% natural ability

then this course would be very helpful to you.

Does anybody know the name of the anatomy book he's looking at at 0:45?

[Icza]

@Tea42formenyou "true you need guidance", soo you're saying you have to learn from someone who knows more about it already? I think that's what goliath was saying in the first place.

[brynbron]

@goliathpictures reading the books is not the same as what you are saying. that is obvious research material the requires nothing but the initial purchase of the book. paying you for tuition is not a necessity to everyone. If you think it is, you are obviously very naive as to what individuals can accomplish.

[unkownhotty]

any way it is like saying to become a gold medal athlete u have to train with them and in this case its bull

[GR4C3W]

nice!
