I am very proud to add Harald's new titles to our library. I think many artists will benefit from his step by step explanations of his design and styling philosophies. It's especially helpful to watch him break down his styling choices when creating new and innovative props and cars.

The ability to design a car is not something anyone can just pick up by taking a class or drawing for a few weeks. It requires a serious amount of dedication and many hours of practice. Harald will take you step-by-step through his design process and give you a look into the complexity and challenges of designing a vehicle similar to the one he designed for Minority Report. In addition, he will also introduce one of the cars he designed for Hotwheels®, and take you through each step of its design process. At the end of the lecture he quickly renders a car’s side-view within Adobe Photoshop®, and shows some of the many tricks he uses to complete a powerful presentation of the design.
