在本DVD中,Neville展示给我们另外一种专用于角色概念创意开发的方法.很多时候当你接受一个项目的时候它都会有很多的约束条件,而其他时 候你会希望放下所有现有的概念,而让新的构思自己出现在你面前.本DVD探索了一些"创造惊喜事件"的方法,并且介绍了一些快速看到它们的方 法.Neville从Photoshop绘画开始,快速的绘制一些随机造型,然后从里面找一些有价值的地方.在发展出一个很复杂的图形以后, 他将它绘制到接近最终效果,从而揭示了开发一个生物造型的时候始终尝试找到新的构思的重要性.接着他介绍使用ZBRUSH的镜象工具绘制头部与生物的一些 方法.最后他在ZBRUSH中完成了雕塑效果从而介绍了在3D创作中保持创意的一些方法.

In this DVD, Neville offers alternative approaches to developing ideas, specifically for character concept development. There are times you want to approach a project with great specificity and then other times you want to put aside presumption and allow for “it” to happen to you. This DVD explores a few approaches to fostering “happy accidents” and ways to efficiently “see” quickly. Neville begins in Photoshop®, very quickly sketching random shapes and areas of value to "find" an image within. After discovering an intriguing image, he takes it to near completion, revealing the importance of staying open to new ideas as he develops a creature. From there he explores the same ideas for head and creature development using Zbrush's mirroring tool. Finally, he finishes with a sculpted Zbrush "sketch" showing ways to keep creativity alive while working in 3D.
