“I will mainly teach you the core background theories and practices from a beginner’s perspective.”
An introduction to background concept art by an original artist with 11 years of experience.
Background concept art, unlike character illustration, which requires focusing on a single subject, requires attention to the overall shape, design, and screen composition, so it can be difficult for beginners who have just entered the art world.
In this class, even beginners who are drawing backgrounds for the first time can learn essential background theory step by step, starting with very basic perspective and perspective, so that they can easily follow and ultimately complete background concept art.
Learn the introductory background art know-how from concept artist Lee b, who has experience working on various practical illustrations for Nexon, NCSoft, and Netmarble.

Speaker introduction
Concept Artist
Lee b
Hello, this is Lee B, a concept artist with 11 years of experience. I have had various practical and outsourcing experiences at famous game companies and have been continuously studying for good pictures. There are many ways to study drawing, but rather than learning on your own through simple practice, a lot of learning and practice must be done simultaneously based on various theoretical materials.
In this class, we aim to lower the barrier to entry felt by those who are just starting out in background drawing through various learning and practices.
Based on what we have studied over the years and our personal know-how, we will help you create a more grounded picture together.

You'll Learn
-
Understand Basic PerspectiveLearn how to set up the Photoshop interface, brushes, and keyboard, understand basic perspective using basic shapes, and learn how to easily apply perspective. -
Understand Light and ColorUsing basic shapes, we will examine the temperature and characteristics of color and express light and dark and reflected light through the relationship between artificial lighting, sunlight and shadows. -
Applying Key Axis Perspective and LightingBased on the theories learned earlier, we will apply perspective to the background through perspective and scale and practice background lighting according to the difference between direct and diffuse light.
-
Precise Form and Design Determine the DensityLearn the differences between casual and live shooting according to purpose, proportion, environment, and concept, and learn important shapes and design forms such as rhythm, change, unity, and balance. -
From Silhouette Sketches to Unique Structure Concept ArtWe will complete a unique structure through a sequential detailed process, including how to use references to solve the concept, quick sketching, natural composition, and coloring. -
Final Background Concept ArtBy connecting the theme, weather, and situation of the space you want to express, you will complete background concept art by applying all the theories you have learned so far, from sketching to detailed color and shape expressions and final corrections.

Interview with
Concept Artist, Lee b
Question.01
What do you focus on when constructing the curriculum?
What do you focus on when constructing the curriculum?
The point is to approach the things you are drawing with as much basis as possible, rather than drawing them based on sense or inertia. While drawing the background , we continuously explore the reasons why the picture looks bad and the various reasons why it looks good, and based on basic theories and principles, we provide various solutions based on fundamental content rather than fragmentary styles or fixed methods. We will provide it to you.
Question.02
If you had to choose the target audience for this course, what would it be?
If you had to choose the target audience for this course, what would it be?
It is suitable for beginners or those who have started drawing but have not yet developed a good foundation . When drawing, beginners often draw out of inertia for no particular reason or simply imitate a drawing that looks cool just because it looks good. I think it shows up. Ironically, most good paintings that stimulate people's emotions are actually very planned and systematic, so we need to explore numerous reasons and evidence.
Question.03
What are the unique points of this course?
What are the unique points of this course?
Gorgeous light, light and dark colors are also important parts of a painting. But I don't think adding these elements to a bad form can improve the overall picture. Many people who draw pictures will take this for granted. The importance of form is often overlooked because it is thought to be so obvious. Therefore, I especially emphasized how to draw based on evidence by using many elements necessary for drawing, including good-looking shapes and designs .
