Creating several photorealistic and stylized cinematic keyframes with a medieval theme, Jama thoughtfully explains all the important reasons behind every choice made and each process taken so that you can apply the same principles to your own workflow — whatever tools you may use. Sketching out ideas in 2D and sharing how time restrictions can help visually communicate the main ideas and scenes, Jama reveals the key to time efficiency in the film industry and also reveals how Blender can be used to quickly model 3D assets for scene building, as well as the value of a well prepared asset library.
