I drew. They smiled. I drew more. They smiled more. This simple exchange has led to my calling in art. Yes, early on I wanted to be an animator at Disney. That’s what I always worked towards, but WHY did I want to do that? It all stemmed from entertaining, way back to when I was a kid. In this video we’ll explore finding that CALLING and turning into your lifelong CAREER. https://www.clausu.com/variety-is-a-style daily 0.75 2021-04-13 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/1618336601262-NDL2QZYOG8J28F14TI1J/Screen+Shot+2021-04-13+at+10.56.29+AM.png VARIETY IS A STYLE - I could never settle on that ONE STYLE and then I thought, why should I? This class is all about helping you find those different artistic voices you can use to say what you want to say! I’ll show you a few of the styles I’ve executed over the years and show you how to breakdown reference in order to grow your artistic quiver. Ranging from minimal graphic design to detailed illustration, we’ll expand your knowledge of commercial and entertainment art and introduce you to a broad range of image-making skills. https://www.clausu.com/artboards-are-your-friend daily 0.75 2021-04-13 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/1618338363261-OB5BC322RSX5H8GMP1TQ/Screen+Shot+2021-04-13+at+11.25.33+AM.png ARTBOARDS ARE YOUR FRIEND - I was tired of my computer lagging with 12 separate PSD files open at once, but what could I do?

Contour line drawing. I’ll go over these methods and more in this class. I love drawing the human figure, capturing the essence of a pose or gesture with as little lines as possible, or with as many bold, heavy, fluent lines as possible. I found there’s an art form in capturing so much with so little. In this class I’ll take a deep dive into how I draw my SQUINTS figures, which are proportionally exaggerated drawings that combine contour line with gesture drawing, helping you unleash your inner UN-PRECIOUS artist. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/135d55b8-810d-4e46-9310-bf88a5b35465/VinceCarter.jpg LOOSEN UP https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/5d277075-73fe-41c9-8da5-aea62cc3622d/Raphael_TMNT_New_03.jpg LOOSEN UP https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/f4391fa3-5653-43f1-9133-ddd2a6ebe776/MickeyMantle_Small.jpg LOOSEN UP https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/5e1fc1a2-c294-4d68-ada8-b132f1b2f456/CapAmerica_Fortnite_01.jpg LOOSEN UP https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/714a5ffc-9d5a-4ffb-8c6a-0d9e96ee1037/Kawhi.jpg LOOSEN UP https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/cb0346e6-4156-46e9-8435-ef0f80a83759/Mandalorian_NEON.jpg LOOSEN UP https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/ab68847e-d650-4e2b-a69c-8d191f8f30bb/AndreGian2.jpg LOOSEN UP https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/bf3883d2-1d7e-41bf-9396-a1efc71fb76d/Caesar_BW.jpg LOOSEN UP https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/897cba5e-4ac7-42bd-af2a-145b7035f4b7/Yoda_site.jpg LOOSEN UP https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/56a1b692-a690-4c71-99aa-278fee81356d/WW_NewFilm_Remix2.jpg LOOSEN UP https://www.clausu.com/magic-of-the-pen-tool daily 0.75 2021-04-13 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/1618349319867-0SAWEQNZM95MKW6IXZSR/Luke_Skywalker_mando3.jpg MAGIC OF THE PEN TOOL - I’ll show you how to use the incredibly versatile Pen Tool in Photoshop to create a dynamic shape language all your own. I’ve always looked for ways to get faster and more adapt in the program I use on a daily basis, Adobe’s Photoshop. As soon as I found the Pen Tool, and the way you can fill in shapes automatically, similar to Illustrator, I was hooked. And over the years the tool has only become more intuitive, giving me no reason to ever draw in Illustrator again! In this class I’ll show you how to make eye-catching shapes at a great pace for such effective results! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/e84c2d26-48d7-4698-a7b9-e9037b0ca0fb/Vision.jpg MAGIC OF THE PEN TOOL https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/9126d37b-69ba-45c4-aadd-acfdb911f61e/ScarletWitch.jpg MAGIC OF THE PEN TOOL https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/c2fb8225-8d58-4aba-925d-65ebd68e470a/download+%2814%29.jpeg MAGIC OF THE PEN TOOL https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/8582976a-289b-42d5-8a57-e2d6b1d5b297/CC_JH_CapnQuarters_03_RuffledBed.jpg MAGIC OF THE PEN TOOL https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/d8ff6517-e806-483f-a297-1a6c5b891816/Screen+Shot+2021-04-13+at+2.36.39+PM.png MAGIC OF THE PEN TOOL https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/467026b2-b15c-4254-9794-83f3320c45ec/Screen+Shot+2021-04-13+at+2.38.06+PM.png MAGIC OF THE PEN TOOL https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/01536d9d-6479-4650-a85c-624f37eca06d/RCAD_CLAUS_FinalPoster_LowRes.jpg MAGIC OF THE PEN TOOL https://www.clausu.com/choose-that-font daily 0.75 2021-04-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/1618503992015-OZH180RF7YKTFKYDVJQ3/UA_Web_COLLECTION.jpg CHOOSE THAT FONT - I’ve only had one formal class in Graphic Design and it was called ‘Experimental Typography’ but it was enough to forever hook me on Graphic Design - hopefully this class will do the same for YOU! Adding Graphic Design and Typography to your Motion Design quiver means so much, adding another layer of depth to your portfolio that might push your work past that of someone else’s. I’ve found that being able to apply type to my illustrations and designs has done that for me time and again, showing a sophistication that is not seen as much in the Motion Design field! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/33cb7dae-6050-41f2-84e4-85050e6e3641/Framestore_Army_CLAUS_StyleA_Vertical_01Artboard+1.jpg CHOOSE THAT FONT https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/426b7cb8-fc27-4c98-b913-2bbcee8f1ce5/Framestore_Army_CLAUS_StyleA_Vertical_01Artboard+2.jpg CHOOSE THAT FONT https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/858b8ecb-4101-41b5-9b18-8b49302a9885/Framestore_Army_CLAUS_StyleA_Vertical_01Artboard+3.jpg CHOOSE THAT FONT https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/b99d05d5-2dc1-4ede-a573-46a1a7835ed4/Framestore_Army_CLAUS_StyleA_Vertical_01Artboard+4.jpg CHOOSE THAT FONT https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/79f8c3ac-6bf3-4b8d-b65f-65e1a0b38588/Framestore_Army_CLAUS_StyleA_Vertical_01Artboard+15.jpg CHOOSE THAT FONT https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/0a2a6f3f-9a2b-421a-8dec-7dac872f72cf/homecoming-poster-julia-roberts-2.jpg CHOOSE THAT FONT https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/4ed14d9c-75be-4874-99be-415f62975aab/Blur_Homecoming_CLAUS_C_06.jpg CHOOSE THAT FONT https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/55548337-a8c0-4465-9238-c7e3603d5156/ML_Sarofsky_CLAUS_C_01.jpg CHOOSE THAT FONT https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/44810c2b-a8fa-41f0-952a-c0841b388e6d/EHAN_%5CMarketing2.jpg CHOOSE THAT FONT https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/72f6f5dd-fd00-42ea-8557-37fc4c86c169/IMG_4902.jpg CHOOSE THAT FONT https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/6b2113e0-4c50-4e4d-8cc3-0b67ace61fc3/IG_Rebel.jpg CHOOSE THAT FONT https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/e410f816-e305-41c6-99e0-5e6d4ad90f15/Mocean_HBOGO_CLAUS_02Artboard+4.jpg CHOOSE THAT FONT https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/d66b9b03-2827-4a69-a377-9ba874e9a78d/VC_CLAUS_Signed_B_01.jpg CHOOSE THAT FONT https://www.clausu.com/characters-galore daily 0.75 2021-04-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/1618505872771-HV4THRDDIH6QN9FPOSUB/BW_01.jpg CHARACTERS GALORE - In this class I’ll walk you through the basics of character design, from creating strong silhouette shapes to utilizing the ‘straights vs curves’ methodology. So much of Motion Design, and illustration in general, includes story, and story is driven, much of the time, by characters! I feel it is inherit to a Motion Designer’s well-being to be able to effectively design an appealing character, be it for 2D After Effects animation, cel animation, or 3D animation! I’ll walk you through the basics of appealing character design and give you that boost of confidence you need the next time someone asks you to design a character! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/89a0d8ab-a4f4-408a-8e7f-ac6cc0792759/InsideARK_Concept_01_flatoverlay.jpg CHARACTERS GALORE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/0326f124-2c9b-414f-be93-87f79674bf69/Char_Designs_03.jpeg CHARACTERS GALORE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/007a01ed-35f8-40c9-8901-e97279423620/CLAUS_Homepage_2000.jpeg CHARACTERS GALORE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/b5e29f7f-2ebe-4a02-8556-7531e9747429/image-asset+%283%29.jpeg CHARACTERS GALORE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/eb224203-3b74-4894-94eb-ea29f5d10688/Gamestop_Bunny_85x11.jpeg CHARACTERS GALORE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/9387915e-876c-45c5-beec-75999551eb5a/CLAUS_StyleA_v01.jpeg CHARACTERS GALORE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/ccdd369a-4996-4ab1-b3e0-553b7f5fa1c9/Chevron_JCH_A_07_2000_2000.jpeg CHARACTERS GALORE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/e0f82293-bff2-437e-871a-d86fcef23204/LW_CLAUS_Muve_Eyes_02_B.jpeg CHARACTERS GALORE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/4abe6bf3-3199-49cb-976c-4ce8c9b0389a/Character_Explore_2.jpeg CHARACTERS GALORE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/61328d1b-a49c-4643-88de-6fedc3908a7a/HB_01.jpeg CHARACTERS GALORE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/d7c3eb67-4485-4dd0-bc3e-af20ee322533/image-asset+%282%29.jpeg CHARACTERS GALORE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/86fa9673-2802-430c-8221-32645ad8a7e6/image-asset+%281%29.jpeg CHARACTERS GALORE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/0941bf16-1000-4108-8520-c3b8b0d2cb5e/image-asset.jpeg CHARACTERS GALORE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/12129732-4e2b-4db7-989b-2901145653ea/BNS_Carefree_CLAUS_Characters_Social.jpeg CHARACTERS GALORE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/cc35a9fd-7c19-4bbc-8b83-fbcd3569d23d/RCAD_CLAUS_FinalPoster_LowRes.jpg CHARACTERS GALORE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/887a3329-d4f3-4a9a-a92b-ebc476793171/MasterDon_NOAH.jpg CHARACTERS GALORE https://www.clausu.com/nail-that-style daily 0.75 2021-04-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/607092e5f3496048ea7afb56/1618509985329-LW05RMPKL3GQJZQCP4JS/DP.jpg NAIL THAT STYLE - Being a ‘Swiss Army Knife’ takes time! And patience! And how do we put OURSELVES into the art so it doesn’t feel too close to the reference?! I’ll answer all these questions and more in this class!
