Who doesn't love dogs and cats?

That's the question we asked ourselves when we decided to launch our series with this title. Over the course of this hour-long DVD, artists will learn time-tested techniques for creating cinematic-quality artwork for television and the big screen.

It all starts with a solid foundation, so that's where Jeffrey begins; with understanding the skeletal structure of the quadruped. Once the basic building blocks are covered, Jeffrey builds on that knowledge and teaches you more exciting techniques like how to sketch in an armature, how to pose your figure, how to develop personality, methods for drawing fur, and much more.

So grab your pencil, it's time to bring your four-legged friend to life on paper!

Enter a realm of fantasy...

In this 2nd volume of our series, we are going to to take you into a world where your imagination can run wild. Over the course of this hour-long DVD, artists will learn how to construct aliens and dragons in both the front and side perspective, and then learn how to create an action pose.

Once you understand the building blocks of these atypical characters, Jeffrey teaches you how to create variation in facial expressions, how to create alien hands, methods for developing textures, and much more.

In the end, we hope the skills you develop will help you breath life into your own amazing creatures

Soar through the clouds... and then dive into the depths.

During this hour-long training session, Jeffrey is going to explore the natural world with you. And what better way to do that then to illustrate two creatures that exist in opposing environments?

For the first half of this DVD we will take to the skies and show you how to draw a bird. We will focus on structural anatomy as well as how to draw feathers, how to position the wings in multiple poses, and how to suggest air currents. For the second half of the DVD we will plunge into the ocean and explore the anatomy of fish. We will focus on how to draw scales, how to create textures and patterns, how to create motion, and how to suggest water currents. Be sure not to miss this one!

Break out your tools. It's time to have some fun.

In this hour long lesson, Jeffrey will show you how to breathe life into inanimate objects. For the first half of the DVD, we will focus on building a robot in both the front and side perspective. Once you have the pose locked in, you will learn how you can squash and stretch metal, how you can create “glint” effects, and how you can push the general envelopes of mechanical creativity. For the second half of the program, we will focus on how to give personality to a vehicle. Jeffrey will teach you how to position key facial elements, how to adjust these elements to create expression, and how to apply these techniques to vehicles of varying types. Strap on your seat belt. It's going to be a fun ride!
