J.C. Park
Concept Artist


Hello, I'm background concept artist J.C. Park.
I've been working as a background
concept artist for about 16 years now,
I did background work for NCSoft
on "Steel Dog" and "Aion",
and later for NetEase Games in China.

I'm currently working at "ROCKFISH Games",
a game company in Germany,
and I have been here for 5 years.

Due to the growing game market,
there is naturally an increase
in demand for concept artists as well.
However, I feel that it's difficult to find
a place to learn professional concept art.
So I wish to try and quench
that thirst through this class.

I'm prepared to teach you
the essential aspects of concept art
to help you master and make effective
use of the basic principles you need
to draw background concept art.

Interview

Question.01
What do you think is the most important factor to working as a background concept artist?


Everything starting from perspective, composition, lighting, etc. is important, but what's more important is whether or not the concept you want to show is expressed in your drawing. A lot of people struggle with this, and I've also gone through a lot of trial and error myself. I plan to share my detailed insights on setting up a concept and infusing it into a drawing throughout the class.

Question.02
How is this class special compared to other classes?


Rather than simply copying background work, we will be learning the details and basic understanding of shade, light, coloring, etc. required for background concept art and the detailed elements needed to make artwork, such as lighting. We will be going beyond learning the basics by creating actual examples, which will allow us to gradually enhance our skills.

Question.03
What would be something special about yourself?


My strength is that I can create high-quality concept art within a short amount of time. Being good at drawing is important, but what's more important when you're on the job is producing a clear concept and a high-quality result within the given amount of time. You will acquire a more efficient way of working using my process.

Question.04
Tell us about the marketability and prospects of background concept art.


I believe it's a job category with good prospects and potential for entering other markets. There's a high demand that starts with gaming, film, and animation and extends into books with background art, package cover art for board games, illustrations, etc. Once you reach a certain level, you'll be treated fairly well within the industry since it's not easy to find a background concept artist.

Question.05
To whom would you recommend this class?


I basically recommend it to anyone who wants to start building a solid understanding of the principles of background concept art. For students aspiring to work at a game, film, or animation-related company, and those preparing a relevant portfolio, I believe this will serve as an opportunity to upgrade your drawing skills.
