So, in a nutshell, what is concept art? Concept art is a form of visual representation used to convey and communicate ideas, designs, and themes before they are brought to life in various forms of media, such as video games, movies, television shows, animations, and even theme park attractions. Concept artists create illustrations, sketches, and paintings that help directors, producers, game designers, and other creative professionals to visualize the intended look and feel of characters, environments, objects, and scenes. Concept art serves as a foundation for other artists, such as 3D modelers, animators, and visual effects artists, who use the concept art as a reference to build and create the final assets for the project. Concept artists often work closely with art directors and creative leads, taking feedback and iterating on their designs to ensure the final product aligns with the overall vision of the project. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Discover this amazing Domestika course: Concept Art: Character Design & Worldbuilding ------------------------------------------------------------------
