MAQUETTE SCULPTING Begins:
Saturdays: Feb 16, 23, Mar 2, 16
ENROLLMENT DEADLINE: Saturday February 16th

NOTE: There will be no class on Saturday March 9th

Course Description:
_A maquette is a sculptor's small preliminary model or study.  In the FX industry, a sculptor brings dimension to the concept art by first sculpting a maquette of the creature before sculpting it at full scale.  Maquettes are also widely used in the gaming and 3D animation world where traditionally sculpted maquettes are 3D scanned into the computer for rigging the digital model for animation.  In this course taught by artist J. Anthony Kosar, you will learn the professional process on how to design and sculpt your own maquette, beginning with full body character/creature concept design fundamentals.  Next you will learn to proportionately build a wire armature to dynamically pose your creature.  You will then learn sculpting techniques to form your maquette by applying anatomical understanding.  NOTE: students will not be making molds or castings of their sculpture in this course.  This course will consist of lectures, demonstrations, and hands-on learning.  All materials included, including a sculpting tool set for you to keep!  Also, as an added bonus, you will learn how to fabricate your own custom sculpting tools (examples pictured below).  Be prepared to take notes.
