Hi Gleafer, thank you for all the lovely and silly art you bestow upon us! A question for you if you have a chance:
I’ve realized that many of the artists whose styles I really admire (yourself included) are storyboard artists; there’s something extra strong and solid about the characters’ shapes/ poses, and everything reads very clearly.
I’m sure there are a ton of factors at play to pull this off but do you have any thoughts on how this is done? Any secret art sauce that the storyboard folk in particular learn?
Thank you!
It’s because we’re all insane.
NEXT QUESTION!
I kid! It’s from needing to convey emotions through nonverbal body language and facial expressions as quickly a read as possible. So we learn to exaggerate without getting into the “caricature/cartoon” style of art.
It’s a neat skill to have but takes a ton of practice and patience.
There! Now…
NEXT QUESTION!!!
