Course Curriculum
Hi, I’m Luis Escobar
I'm currently a storyboard artist on The Simpsons TV show and I also boarded on The Simpsons Movie (among other things). I've always drawn, and have always wanted to be a professional artist. Since I drew so much, I got confident at drawing. You get good at what you do most. People called me "talented."
When people tell you that over and over, you think it actually means something. However, I found out the hard way that talent wasn't all that meaningful. When I was introduced to the world of professional drawing, I found that EVERYONE was "talented." Everyone drew a lot and so they were all confident artists. When everyone has your superpower, is it really a superpower?
Not only that, but there were people who were WAY better at drawing than I was. In an environment like that you find out real quick that "talent," is practically meaningless. The only thing that really counts is effort. Are you willing to put more effort, work harder, learn more and practice more than the other person? THAT'S what counts.
Not only that, but I also became aware of people who started drawing late in their life. People who weren't told all their life they were talented, who simply decided to start drawing because they really wanted to learn. These people became good, simply because they learned to do it and put in the effort.
This is why I'm teaching this course. It's not magic. You just do the work.
