Creating engaging illustrations isn't just about the characters you design. The environment they inhabit is just as important in conveying emotion, mood, and atmosphere. In this course Jake Parker will guide you through the process of designing interiors, architecture, and landscape for illustration.
Besides designing environments for various video games, Jake Parker has worked as an environment artist on multiple feature films including Horton Hears a Who, Epic, Ice Age 3: Dawn of the Dinosaurs, and Rio. On top of video games and films he's also done environment design work for graphic novels (Missile Mouse, Antler Boy) and children's books (The Astonishing Secret of Awesome Man, Apples A to Z, The Girl Who Wouldn't Brush Her Hair).
