Live Drawing: The Art of Background Design in "The Apothecary Diaries"

DescriptionThis session will explore the creation of background art for "The Apothecary Diaries (https://kusuriyanohitorigoto.jp/)" Using a unique production technique that combines 3D Maya and custom Photoshop brushes, the demonstration will showcase the development process of a key visual.
The main series features background art depicting a fictional world inspired by China's Forbidden City. Based on the rough image provided by the director, the artwork creates a symbolic realm where main characters Maomao and Jinshi stand poised on the threshold of their next adventure. The visual expression weaves together diverse imagery—from cosmic scenes and nebulae to fire—enriched by intricate patterns and dragons added during the production process.
Discover the art of anime backgrounds as it unfolds - from creative thinking to final execution.
