Join us on Thursday, March 31st as we welcome senior concept artist Luca Nemolato! As an accomplished industry artist, Luca has refined his workflow for creating concept art and shares that process as an instructor with The Gnomon Workshop and CG Society/CGMA Workshop.
During this presentation, Luca will take viewers behind the scenes as he details his 2D - 3D workflow from inception to execution. He will begin by creating a character using Daz 3D, move into sketching using Photoshop, then sculpting in ZBrush and rendering in Keyshot. Luca will also dive into the latest addition to his professional pipeline: the use of Unreal Engine 5 for environments and characters!
As a senior concept artist, Luca has worked on incredible projects in film, television, and games including The Shape of Water, Westworld, Middle-Earth: Shadow of War, and DC’s upcoming filmBlack Adam. The Gnomon Workshop recently released Luca’s second instructional title “Superhero Concept Design for Film & TV," and we will be sharing the trailer during this live stream!
