“Definitely one of the
finer designers of our generation. Scott's innovative designs bridge the
gap between today's fiction and tomorrow's science. His attention to detail
is sometimes mind blowing... but he is not somebody to keeps it all to
himself. He is so concerned with teaching his knowledge to others that
it makes him one of the top educators in digital and traditional art.”

On this first of three DVDs in the
Matte Surface rendering series, Scott shares with you the shading
techniques he has been teaching for over a decade. Scott covers
the necessary tools and materials, explaining how to use them.
Next he explains and demonstrates the basics of how our brains
interpret form via value changes. Scott uses observational
video clips of a box in various lighting scenarios to reinforce
his value assignment strategy. Walking you through several
sketches, he shows his techniques for properly constructing
the cast shadows of planar forms. The rendering examples demonstrate
the use of pencil, chalk and marker. This DVD is intended as
a “must-watch” for beginners and a good refresher
for the more experienced artist/designer.
