About Me
Hello, my name is Estelle and I am better known, on social networks, under the pseudo Asphodèle.
Passionate about drawing since a very young age, I decided to make it my profession while growing up. It is therefore for a few years (5 years today) that I have been studying drawing and illustration at the Emile Cohl school, in the third arrondissement. Today in video game master (I study how to choose the artistic direction of a video game), I decided to make my knowledge available to enthusiasts like me, or even those who just want to draw for pleasure.

I mainly teach the basics of academic drawing which are very important to know how to draw well. Artistic interpretation does not really have its place in my course, even if it can be added to it. It will be a lot of technique at the beginning and theory.
My course is for anyone who wants to learn this.

I am very patient and rigorous and above all want the course to suit the student. Thus, I will do my best to make sure to adapt the course to the person and according to what they want to learn (be careful, it is sometimes necessary to go through a few painful steps before doing cool things!)
Education
Diploma of draftsman practitioner level. II, Emile Cohl School, Lyon (2016-2020)
Designer-designer diploma (video game specialty), Ecole Emile Cohl, Lyon (2020- today)

Hello,

Let me introduce myself, Marylène, professional storyboarder, graduated in animation cinema.

I offer serious drawing lessons adapted to the level of the student, from the beginner to the young professional through the animation student.

During the first lesson, we will talk about the student's expectations and set the artistic objectives by defining a personalized program. I would assess the level of the student, his strengths and weaknesses for a tailor-made course, taking into account to nourish his universe and his sensitivities with a background both cultural and technical.

I teach both the basics of solid drawing to beginners (perspective, proportion, composition, volume, anatomy, gesture, posing, principles of animation ...) as well as to students / future students in animation cinema, to young professionals who want to specialize in storyboard or who have questions about how to develop a TV pitch.

For the storyboard part, my specialty, I will teach the basics of cinematographic language (types of framing, transitions, camera movement ...) and I will follow with basic exercises to be able to make parts of portfolio.

Indeed, I can also support the student for the realization of a portfolio / demoreel for animation schools. I could guide him to feed and build his book taking into account the expectations of schools and studios.

I travel to Lyon for a travel fee, and also give online lessons via Webcam and screen sharing on Skype.

Students will have free follow-up by phone, email, whatapps or facebook as well as personalized feedback on the exercises.

My teaching areas:

- Academic drawing
- Preparation for entry to art schools
- Dynamic Posing / Gesture
- Storyboard
- 2D animation
- Pitch TV series
- Integration into the professional world (portfolio / demoreel / CV) French and English.

Hello,

The courses are above all adapted to the personality of the student, his artistic sensibility and his objectives.
Through my professional experience and my years of study, I will be able to guide the student to the beginning of artistic autonomy and an ability to learn on his own.

During our first interview we will talk together about the student's objectives, and assess his level by taking into account his artistic skills.
I would clarify doubts and questions about the amateur or professional artistic career as well as the cartoon and video game industry and related studies.

The most important thing for the student is self-confidence and fulfillment, which will be the pillars for artistic progression and longevity.

Subjects taught:
-digital and traditional painting
- basic character building
-perspective
-decor and personal design
-light
- creation of a graphic universe

Solveig
After studying art for fifteen years in a Parisian workshop and starting a preparatory course in Art at the Beaux-Arts de Lyon, I offer an introduction to digital drawing techniques.

During my studio training, I experimented with numerous techniques (life drawing, still life, painting, cyanotype, engraving, pastel, charcoal, sculpture) which I now use in my digital drawings. I have been drawing on Krita for a year now, creating posters, original drawings, and animations.

Today, I offer to guide people interested in digital drawing techniques for a few hours. During this introductory session, I can adapt to each individual's preferences, whether they focus on line work, color, or composition.

My goal is to foster an interest in art and digital drawing in each and every one of my students, ensuring both enjoyable lessons and rapid progress. I look forward to seeing everyone's creations and am curious about your artistic ambitions.

My teachings


The aim of this introduction to digital drawing is to allow students to gain an initial appreciation of the techniques and potential of digital drawing. First, we will cover the basic parameters of the Krita software and install the necessary software to ensure access to its various features before exploring the artistic possibilities of this format. Throughout this introduction, my goal is also to ensure the student enjoys the process and, more generally, to encourage them to pursue their artistic interests and curiosities.

We will use various digital drawing techniques: layers, masks, brushes, colors and the color triangle, animation (for beginners), coloring, and selection and transformation tools. If desired, I can also offer tests to check that the student has understood each step; however, in all cases, developing autonomy is central to this introduction, and this is achieved without the need for tests.

Upon completion of this introductory course, students will be able to use Krita's basic tools independently, creating digital drawings and, if they wish, their first animations. They will be proficient in using the various tools covered. Results will be quickly visible, and each student will soon be able to implement their own projects, which I will be delighted to support.

I offer this introductory course on Krita, which remains particularly accessible as it is free. Therefore, the financial commitment for this course does not include the purchase of software. Should the student wish to purchase software to further develop and professionalize their skills, I can recommend software based on their specialization (video editing, animation, digital painting, etc.).

Digital drawing generally requires the purchase of a pad or tablet. For in-person classes, I provide the pad to minimize the financial commitment for what is, after all, an introductory course. This also gives students the opportunity to familiarize themselves with these tools, get comfortable with them, and make informed choices about their equipment. For online classes, however, students will need to purchase their own pad; I can then provide relevant recommendations. It is also possible to draw digitally without a pad using Krita, and although more challenging, it remains an interesting option for those who are not yet sure about continuing their digital drawing training.


Course format

Group classes for multiple students are also possible if each student has a tablet. In this case, I offer discounted rates per household to make this option attractive to everyone.

If the student makes progress on their own outside of class, it is perfectly possible for me to take up their work and questions in the following class and therefore progress at their own pace.

I offer both in-person and online classes. I have the necessary equipment to ensure successful online lessons. One of the advantages of digital drawing is that it is easy to teach remotely.

For home lessons, an additional charge may apply when travel is particularly significant or when schedules are restrictive.

Feel free to contact me with any further questions or if you require further clarification regarding the proposed format or the support provided.
