"Human & Mechs" with Aaron Beck - Opening for Enrollment~!!!

Hi Everyone,

This Fall, Aaron Beck is coming to CDA to teach an 8 week intermediate design class on the design of human and the technology they create.

This is a very rare opportunity to learn from Aaron, so make sure not to miss out on this great class~!

To sign up, please visit our enrollment store at:

Since this class is very focused on design and is 8 weeks in length, we require all students to submit their portfolio for approval before being accepted into the class.

We mainly need to see the student is comfortable with drawing objects in perspective, painting forms with clear lighting and have some basic knowledge of human and mechanical anatomy.

For the portfolio submission details, please visit our "Portfolio Submission Guideline" page at:

The first day of class starts on Saturday, Oct. 20th.
Thanks for your time in reading this and hope to see you in the class~!!

Best,
Kevin Chen
Director
Concept Design Academy
