Concept Art
(Distance Learning)
Concept Art Education
Creating Concept Art is about conveying an idea in a visual form, usually as part of the process of creating an entertainment product. This visual forum could be sketches, drawings, or images with a varying level of detail. Pieces could be stylized or realistic, depending on the project at hand. Albeit not being an end product itself Concept Art serves as the visual base on which a product is further developed.
Concept artists must create drawings or paintings of various assets, including characters, props, buildings and others. Adopting different techniques is important to create impressive images.
The overall aim of all programs at ARC Academy is to build the skills needed by students to become successful members of a game studio. Our classes are taught by professionals with years of experience on various projects. The teaching process is interactive and mostly practice-oriented. That is why students can rely on being given regular and personalized feedback. The highlight of the program is the final semester when students from all programs (Game Design, Concept Art and 3D Art) come together to create a game prototype with a studio producer.
