How To Draw STAR WARS Video Episode V: WASH PAINTING!
Well, a new episode of How To Draw STAR WARS is now up. I thought that today I'd share with you some behind-the-scenes images of what goes into making an episode...
It's been a wonderful ride so far- only three episodes left. It's kind of neat, because the overall arc of the episodes is to show the full creation of a 30th Anniversary STAR WARS poster, yet when you break down each individual episode structure, it has it's own beginning, middle, and end.
It's making me have a newfound respect for TV shows. While I can't compare these 7 minute Episodes to a show like LOST, I'm really intrigued at the effort that goes into making each Episode its own little mini movie. There's a larger story going on, yet each Episode is a satisfying piece of the puzzle. I'm finding so much inspiration with that.
Here I am playing director for this Episode,
shot at the Moscone Center in downtown SanFrancisco.
So, Episode 5, WASH PAINTING, finally begins the color painting stage on the poster. It's the first half of my process, and shows how I make my under-painting with acrylic washes. The Episode also touches on PROCRASTINATION, and even covers using an AIRBRUSH!
You'd be surprised how much work goes into a single shot-
which just ends up being seconds of the final product.
Did I say that this Episode has Stormtroopers?! "Nothing to see here... Move Along... Move along..."
