I believe many students are concerned about the economic aspects of illustration learning. Actually, this is a small problem. The key is whether you can learn, and whether you can learn well. After learning it, it will be your lifelong skill. Just touch the list a little and the cost of learning will be recovered. I always think that the problems that can be solved with money are not big problems. The key is that you work hard and don't study hard. If you want to do something, it's economic.
I have participated in offline entity learning and online learning. Generally speaking, the cost performance of online learning is much higher than that of physical courses. First of all, the general price of physical courses is about 2W to 3W, which is really sky-high for most people. As for online merchants, you can find very high-quality courses around 5000 to 7000. Of course, if you have money in your pocket, you can go to physics class and be free.
Second, I like online learning, freedom, recording and broadcasting, and I can fly it myself.
My favorite way of learning is online learning. I have been delayed, so I can watch the replay. I hate going to a class by bus, subway and subway, and then walking and climbing stairs. It's really a collapse to waste an hour or two on the road before studying.
As for online classes, I can listen standing, sitting and lying down, and I don't have to listen if I'm unhappy. I can't learn it once if I listen to the replay. I played twice, but I can't play twice. This is the legendary sense of freedom.
Three _ Learning is the foundation of all achievements. It is really exciting to listen to an open illustration class of an excellent teacher.
If you have time, you can go online and listen to an illustrator's open class. His lectures are particularly interesting and humorous, and he can make complex knowledge easy to understand. Many students with zero foundation like to listen to his classes. He has been talking every night for many years, and anyone can hear it. Now that you have decided to study illustration, it is really necessary to attend his class. Students who want to attend classes can go to his class.
Only by listening to good classes and teachers can you become a good student, have a good starting point and eventually become a good illustrator. Don't always grope for it yourself, time is precious, and it is wrong to waste it. You can only learn by yourself, and only a master can conquer the world.
The four-point rate refers to the sprouting point.
1. Learn what illustration is first.
If you want to learn illustration, you must first understand the meaning of illustration. Illustration is the earliest way to convey the author's thoughts more clearly in words. As an important visual communication form of modern design, illustration occupies a specific position in modern design with its intuitive image, true sense of life and beautiful appeal, and is widely used in many fields of modern design.
2. Start with interest.
Everyone has his favorite works, so it is necessary to establish his own material library to collect artists' works. But every painting collection should think clearly about the reasons for liking him, because of composition, role modeling, artistic style, color and so on. You should think about all the materials you have collected, which can analyze the sources of your interests and help you learn from them better in your creation and avoid simple copying.
3. Design thinking training.
Learning illustration also requires corresponding design thinking training. Design thinking can ensure the theme expression, inspiration source and transformation of works, so that the creation itself has a complete thinking process. Illustration creation involves a lot of basic design knowledge, so illustration learning is inseparable from design training.
4. Training principles.
First of all, you should remember the importance of boundaries! For example, what sketch wants to express is not only the gradual change caused by the density of lines, but also the ability to correctly divide (black and white) boundaries; There are always clear objective facts in the picture, and the fuzzy treatment is the compromise of visual effect rather than the true nature of the facts, so the real observation and judgment should abandon the deliberate blurring of the picture because the observation is not in place. Then, you have to overcome the habit of perception, and then use it.
Simple styling will make you brain-tonic. This visual experience of writing DNA will make people depend on their true feelings. But remember not to form a mindset, learn to think, and think about every stroke in the picture. The process of drawing is definitely a mental exercise. Rational analysis based on observation.
5. Two skills of thinking training.
15 second quick sketch! The point is to be quick, forcing you to think with your head. Left brain thinking represents caution. Thinking takes time, but when you need to draw quickly and have no time to think, your brain begins to grasp the overall situation. At this time, the intuitive observation led by the right brain has been trained to the greatest extent, thus maximizing the observation potential.
6. Look at the world from another angle.
Everything has its many sides. Seeing the same thing from different angles will have different feelings. If you want to copy, please don't simply copy. From another angle, you can look at it backwards. The key is to turn it over, so it is no longer the original painting. Your left brain has not stored it as a corresponding pattern vocabulary card. Therefore, in the absence of theoretical support, perceptual observation thinking can completely lead you to complete the shaping of the picture.
If you plan to study illustration, it's a pity not to know this.
1, everything must be profit-driven. If you like illustrations, original paintings or comics, start right away. Don't dwell on the so-called talent problem. Love is the best gift.
2. If possible, you can attend some training courses to do basic sketch and color training. If not, you can try to buy some sketch books and color books. If you can't buy books, you can search for tutorials online. For example, there are many good contents in Bili Bili and Zhihu, and basic training is like sketching. The most important function of basic training is to establish an understanding of the essence of things, train people to analyze objects, polish people's modeling ability and perceive subtle beauty in the environment.
3. If you think that the basic training of sketching at the beginning is too boring, and it is easy for people to feel bored and give up, you can find your favorite painter's works and start boxing, with the same goal, and think while boxing, why do you want to draw like this, how to draw, accumulate questions, and seek answers through the Internet or teachers.
4. It is not important to choose painting tools. Choose the most convenient and easy-to-find tool and start immediately. If conditions permit, try to use expensive tools, at least give up and think about the pain.
5. It's best to start choosing a good goal. Ask yourself, what is the purpose of starting painting? Is it to please yourself, or do you want to paint as a career in the future? Different purposes will determine different learning methods. The former can be compared with their own preferences. It doesn't matter how the painting is done or what the standard is. The important thing is whether you can keep interest and fun in the process of painting. However, if you aim at your career, you need to do a lot of boring and repetitive training according to your career needs, and you also need to have a clear understanding and pursuit of good and bad standards. Of course, this is also a good way to make you interested, enjoy it, and be willing to stick to boring training and become a professional painter.
6. To draw a good picture, the accumulation and reserve of knowledge is nourishment, and it is a good way to think more, read more and practice more. There is no idea divorced from reality, and there is no inspiration falling out of thin air. It is not advisable to build a car behind closed doors. It is more important to read more excellent works, compare more and cultivate a broad vision than to dwell on the improved techniques of dead paintings all day.
Above, I want to share some suggestions with the newcomers, mainly a few questions.
1, I painted a lot of pictures, but I always couldn't draw the works I wanted;
2, copying creation, as if reaching the bottleneck has been difficult to break through;
3. I have painted many paintings, and I have never been clear about the complete design process of the original painting;
4. Always dig for details by inertia.
5. I want to enter the illustration, original painting and comic industry, but I don't know how to start, so I am very confused.
Forget it, the most annoying thing is to insist on teaching yourself to draw for several hours every day, feeling that I am making slow progress.
If you don't paint, you don't want to give up your hobbies and dreams. If you continue to draw, you will fall into a difficult state. You are afraid that your mind will explode, and the more anxious you are, the more confused you will be.
Yes, it is not only a normal state for beginners to struggle with "giving up and being confused", but also a common mentality of some full-time professionals; Many beginners teach themselves to draw. They took part in art training and art examination in high school, and students who feel good about themselves explored a lot of painting methodology on the Internet. During the interview, they still can't impress the interviewer with their best works, and as a result, they can't go to their favorite company, which is very sad.
In fact, if you choose the way of self-study illustration, even if you learn a lot of painting skills and the knowledge of hundreds of experts on the Internet, you still can't form a painting method system, and this learning progress is very slow.
Therefore, it is suggested that those students who really want to learn the original illustrations or comics should first define a learning path and knowledge system to avoid wasting time and detours. In fact, the students who take the self-taught exams grow up slowly behind closed doors.
