Bringing It Together
Lesson 4 of 4 Production Concept Art
Revisit your compositions from the previous lessons and perform final checks on materials, framing, and lighting. Jan will cover invaluable techniques for adding post-processing effects in Octane, and how to get the most out of your images. You'll then create beautifully detailed final renders to which you can augment using photobash workflows in Photoshop.
Extra Credit
Option A: Create another lighting setup for your final 12 frames. Option B: If you have followed the Extra Credit for the previous lessons, take those images to the finish line as well.
Assignment
Refine your final 12 frames in terms of lighting and camera adjustments and produce final renders. With the tools available to you in Photoshop or another painting package, create a final set of images with a unified look.

Lesson 1
Planning
You won't get far without planning! We'll start things off by learning how to deconstruct a sample creative brief you might receive from an art director or production designer. After creating a unique outline with our Brief Builder, you'll begin collecting research and reference to create a mood board. Finally, Jan will cover his most commonly used tools in Modo and Octane to use as a basis for creating sketches during an early design phase.
