The full-day event, which can be viewed online via the player embedded above, provides practical guidance in drawing, sculpting and even 3D printing animals: this time with a particular focus on quadrupeds. Masterclasses in drawing, sculpting and animating believable creatures from leading VFX artists The day kicks off with a session on sketching animals from life from Gnomon instructor Andrea Adams and Mollie Hogan, executive director of nonprofit conservation organisation The Nature of Wildworks. They will be followed by one of the event’s most unusual talks, in which taxidermist Allis Markham and Nathan Looyenga, founder of 3D printing service Kapow! 3D, reveal how anatomy affects their work. After an interval, Rhythm & Hues animator Stephen Cunnane – and creator of some very neat videos analysing the walk cycles of mammals and creepy-crawlies – will provide his tips for animating animal gaits. Finally, Krystal Sae Eua, Blur Studio’s lead character artist, will be providing a live demo of her ZBrush sculpting workflow, focusing on the anatomy of canine limbs. Anyone interested in attending is advised to arrive early, and to “bring a sketchbook and an inquisitive mind”.

Advanced Member L'Ancien Regime Posted August 11, 2018 Author Advanced Member Report Share Posted August 11, 2018 It's live right now; the taxidermist lecture is excellent. I'll try to find a you tube or vimeo version to post when it's over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advanced Member Falconius Posted August 12, 2018 Advanced Member Report Share Posted August 12, 2018 I watched the first lecture but didn't really find it that useful, so I skipped the rest cause it was kind of long. I didn't really see how the taxidermist was going to be related, glad to hear it was good, although now I'm upset that I skipped it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advanced Member L'Ancien Regime Posted August 12, 2018 Author Advanced Member Report Share Posted August 12, 2018 I watched about 75% of it. It was OK. I was disappointed with the Zbrush session at the end. The instructress did nice work but nothing to learn there that we don't already know.
