If you’re in LA next Saturday, check out Designing The Avengers: Age of Ultron, a free event at Gnomon School of Visual Effects’ Hollywood campus on the concept work behind the movie.
During the session, which runs from 6-8pm on Saturday 8 August, some of Marvel Studios’ leading artists will reveal their design secrets and share their experiences from the production.
Speakers include the company’s head of visual development Ryan Meinerding, lead character concept artist Andy Park, senior illustrator Rodney Fuentebella and digital sculptor Josh Herman.
They will be joined by freelance concept designer Phil Saunders, and Marvel’s former visual development co-lead Charlie Wen.
