Rainbow Academy è lieta di presentare la Masterclass”Urban Sketching” a cura dell’illustratrice e urban sketcher Benedetta Dossi. Un viaggio creativo di due giorni lungo itinerari urbani della città eterna, rivolto agli appassionati di disegno, grafici e illustratori interessati ad apprendere la tecnica dello urban sketching.

Armati di carta e matita i partecipanti alla Masterclass percorreranno le strade della Capitale, sabato 30 settembre e domenica 1°ottobre, imparando a ritrarre live ambienti, persone e scene di vita quotidiana. L’obiettivo è quello di rappresentare ognuno con la propria tecnica e attraverso la sua sensibilità e il suo punto di vista il ritratto urbano di Roma. A guidarli ci sarà Benedetta Dossi, sketcher e illustratrice freelance che, dopo un’esperienza professionale importante come Concept Artist nella casa d’animazione Rainbow CGI, ha iniziato a viaggiare raccogliendo nel suo “Carnet de Voyage” ritratti urbani realizzati in strada, negli autobus, nelle stazioni e negli aeroporti di tutto il mondo.

La tecnica dello urban sketching è stata lanciata ufficialmente a livello mondiale da Enrico Casarosa (storyboard artist per Pixar) e prevede il raduno di artisti in una determinata città e una vera e propria “battuta di caccia all’immagine”, su itinerari condivisi e predefiniti.

Quello degli Urban Sketcher è ormai divenuto un vero e proprio movimento che mira a riprodurre scene di vita urbana: piazze affollate, signore che fanno la spesa, sguardi panoramici presi dai tetti, persone ferme ai caffè, sedute in riva al fiume. Il loro motto è  “racconta il mondo, un disegno alla volta”.

Programma della Masterclass ”Urban Sketching”:

·  Introduzione alla tecnica dello  sketching.

·  Composizione. Teoria ed esercizi pratici.

·  Come disegnare Ambienti

With more than 50 speakers confirmed for our 18th edition, this promises to be our best edition ever. VIEW Conference will be bring practical content to artists, animators, game developers, storytellers, content creators and other students and professionals who work with computer graphics.

Six visual effects Oscar winners, two Academy Sci-Tech award winners, animated feature film directors, virtual reality pioneers, computer graphics researchers, game developers, photographers, writers, and studio executives will converge in Turin, Italy from October 23-27.

One of the special reasons to attend VIEW is that our speakers like to stay for the entire week and attend talks given by the other speakers, so our attendees have many opportunities to interact with them and another reason is that I think VIEW might be the only conference at which, in addition to talks, animated film directors and Oscar-winning artists offer small, interactive workshops and masterclasses. You get to learn from the best in the in an intimate setting.
