    I thought I was good at drawing, now I just feel dumb knowing there is a lot more to art than I ever knew.

    Hey Tyler I'm a pretty new subscriber and I just want you to know how much your videos are helping me figure out this whole art thing I'm trying to do. All throughout highschool and into college Ive drawn and painted and Im pretty good, at least that's what they told me haha. But I always had a source, like a picture I would regurgitate onto a canvas. And while I was good at recreating, I never really figured out how to create new, unseen things. I have SOOOOO many ideas, and I could not figure out how to make them a reality. I got a tablet and Photoshop, but when I sat down to make something, there was nothing. But just watching these videos has helped me so much. References, thumbnails, shapes and lighting- all of the things I thought I knew at one point- I'm learning like I have never heard them before. If I wasn't a broke college student and starving artist wannabe, I would throw all of my money your way. Your lessons, your class, your artwork- all of it. I know this is long, and maybe a little dramatic, but I just have that rush you get when you create something really frickin cool that you had no idea you could create until someone(hint: it's you) showed you that you can. So thank you, so much, from one of your newest fans.

    Really cool video Tyler that was helpful as all always! I was wondering if these tips also apply to character designs. If no or if there are some more tips you have I would really like to see a video about that :D

    • @TylerEdlin84
      @TylerEdlin84  6 років тому +1

      Flex these do mostly have to do with scene design and layout. Characters follow some basic premises but certainly warrant their own list.

    Hello, thanks alot ! I liked it so much. Can i ask something? I heard from someone who works in graphic design that his company will hire anyone who have a sense of art and a sense of composition. What a sense of art or composition is like ?

  • @danny-fv5zj

    is the balance between primary and supporting focal points just something you have to sense intuitively?

    I'm both surprised and yet not to find a lack of Golden Ratio. I mean it's a great compositional tool but probably not one most people gravitate to automatically.

  • @aki-senkinn
    @aki-senkinn 6 років тому +2

    The rule of thirds has never been an actual composition guide, it's a bad warping of a very different concept, mashed together with dynamic symmetry; the actual composition used by classical masters and today's cinematography. It's not tested and no it doesn't work, artists like you can just make it work by experience. Please research dynamic symmetry instead.

    • @TylerEdlin84
      @TylerEdlin84  6 років тому +4

      i have actually never heard of dynamic symmetry before that sounds like a great topic for a follow up video. im not sure i follow your comments on the rule of thirds though everything i have looked up on that mentions it as compositional tool.

    • @cryan9137
      @cryan9137 6 років тому +4

      Rule of thirds seems to work because of the inward facing bias of objects, as studied in aesthetics science. Objects that face the right tend to look better on the left side of a composition, and objects that face the left tend to look better on the right side of a composition. However, there is a center-bias, in the horizontal center of a composition, for objects that are forward facing. These are natural aesthetic instincts that reveal themselves in the art we look at, as well as when individuals are tasked to arrange objects in research studies. There's no need to complicate things any further. It can all be explained in 1 paragraph.
