I really enjoy this "class room" format - keeps me involved and focused.
I don't mind at all the longer format. If it takes 2-3 hours to explain what you need to explain, then take all the time you need dude. When Design Cinema hits the UA-cam notifications, it always takes the top priority. Best art content definitely on the internet. Thank you!
I bought several drawing tutorials etc and found that most of them are just drawing demos.. ultimately I will come back to FZD channel to learn fundamentals. I really appreciate that you are taking precious time to share your knowledge (and very useful, detailed knowledge indeed in my view) without any expectation. I only wish I were younger and more talented enough to sign up for your school.. but maybe in another life.. :) For now, I whet my interest in devouring whatever you are putting out on this channel. Thank you very much, Mr Feng Zhu!
Right!?!?!? I did the same, bought a bunch of gumroad tutorials from famous concept artists and the majority of them only show fancy techniques and not the fundamentals or design core.
@@Faltz013 outside of Feng, go with Scott Robertson, his first video is 2 hours drawing lines and ellipses in perspective
Thank you for sharing free professional knowledge! I spent tens of thousands of dollars for a multimedia degree that did not even teach me 1/4 of what was said here. Wish I had these videos to learn from two decades ago... To the younger generation of artists, listen to what he's preaching here; because it's exactly what you will look back on 10 years from now and realize every word he's saying about the formula is the truth!!!
Dude, i swear im asking myself how to compose my environnement when you video was realese; your a genius !
Same here! I love him
Hi Feng. I saw you the first time 14 years ago in Attack of the Show. Your artwork changed my life. I always come back to your lessons and work to keep me grounded because it's so engaging. After 12 years and some random luck, I got a job as an Art teacher abroad. I always tell people about you. As a teacher, I know feedback is important, so I'm just one more person letting you know that your work is greatly appreciated.
MASTER IS BACK!!
dude don't apologise for the wait between them, youre one of the hardest working people I can think of and they're always worth the wait :)
I find myself coming back to this channel every few years and every time I learn something new
It's a beautiful day whenever FZD posts a new video. Thanks for your continued generosity, Feng! No other channel goes in-depth like FZD does.
Seeing an FZD video in my feed makes my entire day/week/month!
Thanks, Feng! It shows how passionate you are that when you have free time you choose to share it with us.
This has been one of the best tutorials from you. Its like watching a movie! Great job Feng! You are such a hero!
Amazing! You know why I have been following this channel for so long? because it is clear content explained in a normal and informative manner. There is no bullshit, overexcited voice or ADHD egomaniac crazy host. This is the type of content people need. Thank you!
Every episode is just so enlighting. Thank you, my mind is expanding to new wonderful horizons!
Thank you Feng Zhu! Thank you for squeezing out your precious time and still recording these very helpful and valueble tutorials for the public! You are really awesome! And you are the best! I really hope that I could become someone like you one day. Thank you Thank you Thank you!!!
Thanks for coming back! Your stuff is so inspirational please keep it coming!
Hello Feng! You are such an inspiration for me ! I admire your passion to produce amazing art and to share what you know with others. Currently I am diving deep in music production but I am following you since a while now and as a illustrator/concept artist myself I will be able to use your precious tips and insights to draw. Thank you for your authenticity and respect! All the best for you and your family during these troubled times.
These are super helpful! I would love to see Feng paint again though, watching him paint live is always such a treat
Thanks for posting this Feng, I recently had my first concept art class for environments and really struggled through it and the idea of doing thumbnails. I appreciate you putting such valuable info out here for us artists in training.
You let the people fly master!!Thanks for your time and huge work to do this, to share it for free!Amazing...that's like dreaming awake!
OMG I'm sooo exited! Love the series.
I love these so much, please never stop!
Amazing episode! Im going to rewatch it a couple of times for sure. Thank you for posting all this great videos on youtube!
I was wandering around for 3 years trying to find a way to set my way to prepare an impactful portfolio. This course cleared up my mind because I want to become an environment artist. I do characters either but I wanna build a career on environment. And today I am enlightened by this course thanks so much.
Thank you Feng for all your wonderful videos ! X🤘🏻X
Anytime a video from you comes I hang on to every word. It is so hard to find good, true professional advice so these videos mean the world.
i have now a job as a concept artist, and i say hands down, you are main main source of information
about the field
Wow thank you so much!
listening to this while making thumbnail studies from movie stills, WAS SUCH A POWERFUL LESSON!
Love the long format btw.
Thank you so much for making these episodes!
Thank you so much for doing these. I honestly feel like I'm in some kind of secret club learning from a legend like you. Like I'm normally supposed to climb on top of the highest mountain to find your small hut and beg you for 3 years to teach me.
Loving your vibe its really motivational. Every video released gets me really pumped to do more homework. Thanks for the free tutorials, it really helps for folks like me.
pure gold as always! Thank you Feng.

This was a wonderful comparison of the effect of lenses as it pertains to capturing reference material.
1:25:30 "I know this guy is working on baldur's gate 3"
EDIT: This video was extremely helpful. I was stuck for a bit. Once I implemented this, I was able to get the ball rolling again.
this was a great help, you really explained this concept well and like you said i was starting to notice that composition trend in most pieces and even scenes in movies. Thank you for taking the time to make these videos.
I just found this channel, and this is absolutely AMAZING. thank you for sharing your knowledge~

He's alive!
Love to classroom format
OMG another episode! Hope everything's OK for you Feng
can i like... can i like donate or pay you or something? this knowledge is amazing and frankly, i cannot BELIEVE this is out here for free. so happy i live in a generation of modern technology/social media where artists share their knowledge so readily and for free. i'm only 20 but older artists have made it very clear that even 10 years ago, the amount of tutorials online we have rn are INSANE
I'm having a hard time seeing your horizon line that high at 1:12:33 . It looks like it would be lower. More at the character's hips. Maybe it's the compression of the lines on the ground, but it just looks like we're looking more up. Or maybe it's my eye, and I need to work on it more.
It is actually lower, you re right, it's pretty easy to see, in the middle ground at the towerish thing on the right, it has some kind of rectangular thin platform, you can see that the bottom lines of that platoformy rectangular thing are actually a straight line and having the top lines converging a bit down so it means they the horizon line is there
I kept thinking the same thing, that it should be around the hips or slightly lower even. Was hoping someone else in the comments would bring it up.
Same with the top image, right? The horizon should be at the female character's hips (at the environmental horizon). And in both cases the scale feels a little confusing as a result, unless the camera is crouched down looking up slightly
wow!
“They pay you to play the game not dribble the ball.” ❤️
thank you
awesome episode thanks! do these rules still apply when you are doing concept art for a top down game? I'm having a hard time depicting environments from top donw perspective and still have them conveying compositional depth and layering / making them somewhat illustrative / visual appealing. Especially when doing moodpieces for a region.
very helpfull imformation sir thank you again
Thaaanks
Great stuff man! stay safe )
Thanks
Man i love your videos, i hope you make some environment sketching tips video🖒
YESSSS LET'S GOOOO WOOOOOOOOO!!! YAYAYAYA FENG ZHUUUUUU!!!!
Finally
I actually used to work in Disney Star Wars land 😅 (galaxy’s edge)
The horizon line in the image is actually human eye level because the entire falcon sits on a pedestal. I think R2-D2 was just really close to the difference between the viewer’s high and the pedestal!
