"Landscape Painting" with Jackson Sze~!!

Hey Everyone,

Its Fall and its time for landscape painting again. This semester, Jackson Sze will be returning to CDA to teaching the “Landscape Painting” class on Sunday mornings.

The Class is going to be slightly modified from the last time Jackson has taught it. There’s going to be an emphasis on creating convincing colors out of your head off-site as well. This should help students apply color theory to their entertainment work.

Thanks for your time and hope you can join us~!!

Best,

Kevin Chen

Concept Design Academy

PS – here are some samples of Jackson’s professional work to help illustrate how the skills learned from landscape painting can be applied to design work. For more samples, please visit Jackson’s site at: http://jacksonsze.blogspot.com/

Just as a reminder, our “Advanced Entertainment Design” is still open for enrollment and the portfolio review deadline is coming up next week on Sept 15th.

The advance class focuses on the cross training between Character, Creature, Tech and Environment Design. The goal is to create a cohesive visual style that is unique and enhances the storytelling/game play of the project.

If this is a class you are interested in, please reserve ASAP as the spaces are limited.
