Material Detail

Using these videos is simple!

1. Set up your computer, laptop, or tablet near your working area with the screen at a perpendicular angle to your eye. 2. Make sure you are working in a well lit area with your drawing surface perpendicular to your eye as well. 3. Play the video and try to work in real time (no pausing!). First you will see a series of one minute poses. This doesn't give you much time so you'll want to try to get a sense of the whole figure, whether you're drawing gesture lines or an interconnecting lay-in. Even for the one minute poses, don't rush! Just set realistic goals for yourself. Tip: When two images are shown side-by-side choose whichever image you like. If you repeat the same video session again (and we recommend you do) you can do the drawing over again or choose the other side. 4. After five one-minute poses, you'll get the chance to do five two-minute poses. Here you are going to work the same way that you did with the one minute poses but you'll also be able to start defining the forms (starting with major forms) and how they connect with each other. 5. The last two-poses are 5 minutes each. We have chosen particularly difficult poses here so take your time to work them out. You can view more at http://www.newmastersacademy.org
