About the Class: This class is an introduction to perspective in which we will gain an understanding of one, two, and three-point perspective systems and how to use them to create environments. Understating of these systems will be developed through weekly drawing assignments where practical usage will be explained and demonstrated. An emphasis will be placed on understanding how to relate both people and objects in an environment. Along with technical issues, we will also touch on composition and design concepts when drawing in perspective.

Course Level: Recommended for beginning to intermediate Students. No prior perspective drawing required.

Class Format: This course will run for 10 weeks and will be taught through a combination of pre-recorded lectures and live critiques through Discord.  Each week students will be given access to class lectures and we will then have a live, group critique session the following week to go over homework. We will also have a short live meeting the first week to go over class materials and to answer any additional questions students may have. All lectures and critique recordings will be made available for students to download and review. Class will be limited to 8 students.

Homework:  There will be homework assigned every week based on the lecture material.  Estimated weekly workload is around 5-8 hours.

Materials: This class will be taught digitally using Photoshop.  Drawing tablet or Cintiq required.
