Agideas day 1

Agideas finally started!!!!
It was an awesome day! Illustrators, animators, typographers, industrial designers all in one place.
The event was sold out again :) 5000 participants all together this year!
I ve learned about lighting designers :O People who take care about lighting. They are the masters of giving the final touch, the special mood and magic to objects, spaces and places.

The most inspiring speaker today was Glenn Melenhorst! Oh my God this guy is simply amaziiiiing! His 3D skills, drawing skills, coloring skills are top of the top!
I was searching for some of his works (online) to show you, however I cant find any (except for some short animations).

We received the Agideas book and it is getting year by year thicker and heavier ;) Which I really dont mind! It has awesome info and a great review of all the speakers.

I will post some photos tomorrow ;)

One of the things everyone was pointing out was, that we should train our brain. To sketch every single idea we get (even if during lunch). To not let those special moments of inspiration passing by.
I also decided that I will do more sketches, more exercises every day. I will sketch at least one quick drawing every day. Even if only a face or a chibi... The aim is to exercise my hand and stop being too picky on when taking my time to draw. The problem is that I usually never draw if I dont have a very clear idea about a drawing. And that is bad! Cause sometimes I dont draw for months :/

Anyway, I have already done my daily sketch so I am happy ^^
