What you'll learn

In this series of lessons, we'll focus on the concept design and storyboarding section of the 'Infiltrator' production pipeline. We'll get started by learning how we can quickly generate several rough ideas for our character concept using simple silhouettes. From there, we'll choose our favorite silhouette and begin drawing the rough line work of our character.

Next, we'll learn one method of painting color values onto our character and blending them to create the illusion of a 3 dimensional image. Finally, we'll walk through the storyboarding of a short animated sequence for our character.

You'll also understand how to go about storyboarding out an animated sequence for a character. Software required: Photoshop CS5.
