How To Set Up For Gesture Drawing

This is the first in a series of videos documenting the approach and techniques of Costumed Gesture Drawing for the Animation and Entertainment Industry. As an instructor at The Walt Disney Company, Dreamworks and The Los Angeles Academy of Figure Drawing, these videos have been created to help others not so closely involved with the studio system, the ability to see the "tricks of the trade" only offered inside of the Animation and Entertainment studio's locked gates.

Very cool. I really like the tip about saving your old pens as they run out of ink, I never thought to do that before. Hope to see more videos. Thanks!

Thanks for the kind comment . . . the pen trick was passed down to me by a very amazing Art Director still working today.

Best to you and plenty more to come in the very near future,
