Passion & Talent in car design is a big thing that needs to be clearified. Several people believe that it is enough to have a srong passion for cars to start a career as car designers.
Therefore, they try to go to design school and very often they are not accepted. In this video I try to explain the difference between Passion for car design & Talent for car design.
a new video about a car sketch tutorial made in 3 steps. This time I used a felt tip pen for Step 1 for a rugh linework and proportion study in side view. Step 2 is done with a light marker thin point making all necessary corrections, and step 3 is done with a blue soft color pencil Faber Castel or Prismacolor to apply a final quality finish giving enphasis to line quality and shading. A light background to frame well the composition on page.
Todays topic in our DESIGNtalk is about Scolarships, Masters & Online car design courses.
Some of you asked me to talk about those topics and here I am with my technical analysis. Scolarships give you a great opportunity to be in any good design school without paying for it. With a scolarship tuition is offered or partially offered. In order to apply you have to get info via design schools websites and follow their instructions.
Your application portfolio will be the key element to be selected. It is a hard talent competition and for this reason you have to give the best of yourself in terms of presentation and talent. It is about your skills level.
Master programs in Universities or Design schools can be very useful but be carefull because to become a car designer most of times a Master is not enough. In this video I explain why.
Online car design courses are very positive because they give you the opportunity to find a way to exercise and learn a speciphic topic with a dedicated online teacher. It is a way to invest little money to improuve on your own your drawing skills.
It is a good thing for design students to try getting in contact with design professionals. The main objective is to get a feedback about their works in order to improve their skills and design approach.
However; there are several ways not to do it and others to do it correctly.
In this video some info about this important topic.
To manage a car design project is not easy because it is a complex task. You need a vision, a strategy and most of all you need the right “attitude'” to do it.
In this video I try to explain what does it mean to have that right attitude to manage a car design project. What does it take to impress the right mood to the team to cooperate all together.
Team building and problems solving are important, but the way you as manager work and interact with the team members is more important to achieve the mission.
In my life as designer I saw several times the Undercut in Car Design Contest. Generally the victim is a very talented car designer who is very young, she/he needs expirience and this is the main problem causing the mistake.
In my video I explain how this can happen and what to do to contrast that risk.
several times some of you keep on asking about how to make an Entry Portfolio for Design school admission. How many drawings or projects? What type of drawings? Just sketches or some color renderings, too? What kind of organization do I need to prepare a good one? How not to miss my chance to be accepted and start my Transportation Design Bachelor program in school.
So, to put order about this important topic I made my latest DESIGN TALK on my Youtube channel talking about the Entry Portfolio and how to make one.
