FROM THUMBNAILS TO CONCEPT SKETCHES

Begin with your TOP 3 THUMBNAILS. DO NOT SKIP STEPS. If you are behind… start with the 25 thumbnails … here are the directions below:

  • Write your concept out in the form a of a sentence in your sketchbook, to refer back to as you sketch.
  • Using a Ruler make 20 -25 boxes in your sketchbook approx 2″ on the longest side.
    • Always draw thumbnail boxes in proportion to your final art!
    • Be sure thumbnails don’t share edges. Leave a space between boxes.
  • Fill these boxes with 20 – 25 thumbnail sketches exploring your concepts.
  • Look at your inspiration board as you explore your concepts visually.

REMEMBER:

CONCEPT Sketch

  • Decide on your strongest 3 thumbnails with your Art Director.
  • Refine your design based on feedback and suggestions you received.
  • Strengthen your thumbnails by using photo references.
  • Render these sketches close to your final idea.

Draw at 75 – 100% final size.
