I've set up the group! I'm now the organiser of the London Cartoon, animation + character figure drawing group on Meetup.com
Now I only need to find a venue and a model and members!
Are you just longing for a chance to draw or photograph a model pretending to be flying through the air or hiding behind a lampost? Could be for you...
Who?
For cartoonists, animators, charicaturists and character designers.
What?
Opportunity to draw or photograph (with model's permission) a model in action and in character poses. Quick poses and poses to request. eg model expresses anger or model flies through the air (ha ha ok, balances on a box?).
Clothed / costumes / nude?
The session won't be a class although we can share tips on technique.
Option to go for a drink after the session.
Benefits of group
- More dynamic than the usual figure sitting on a box draped in sheets setup
- Useful if you're rusty on drawing and want to get back into it.
- Useful if you have a specific project on the go and need reference sketches.
- Ever just got totally stuck on hands?!
- Good to meet other like minded people and exchange ideas or discuss solutions to common problems
Location
Central London
A room / studio with comfortable chairs and preferably decent light.
Possibly with easels, but that isn't essential at the start.
Currently looking for a venue - if you can help, please mail me.
When
Monthly at first but aiming for weekly if there's a good turn out. First meetup currently scheduled for Monday April 16th.
Duration
2 hours, 6.30pm - 8.30pm?
The Future
Please go to the group and RSVP 'yes' if you would like to come.Labels: action, animation, animator, cartoonist, character design, charicature, charicaturist, drawing group, figure drawing, meetup.com, photography, pictoplasma, pose
