For the last few months, I've been fortunate to be teaching at Art Center College of Design in the Entertainment Design program. Visual Communication 3 for Entertainment is about realistic materials rendering using Adobe Photoshop. The technique is fairly repetitive, but can rapidly produce results with the creative combination of some basic Photoshop tricks. Here are some class demos in the 30-45 min range. Enjoy!

How interesting to see a digital take on these vis com techniques! I remember when I used marker, prismacolor and just drew cubes and spheres of this stuff. :)
Thanks! I remember the marker chalk days. The new generation doesn't have to get their hands (and paper) dirty, so their approach is more random. I try to reinforce a process similar to marker.
