Rendering & Presentation Techniques for Professionals
This lecture, especially designed for the IACC-North America, covers
using color rendering mediums, as well as drawing, perspective, and
presentation tips to effectively illustrate the intent and mood of your
project. Understanding how to mix mediums, as well as how to use hand
illustration techniques on photo, or software illustrations to achieve
realistic hues, textures, and spatial volume is critical for avoiding
flat, off-hue presentation. The lecture focus in on interior spaces,
but the concepts and techniques are equally applicable to the
presentation of exteriors.
