In my childhood days growing up in Los Angeles, I was fascinated with “behind the scenes” content from Hollywood movies and video games. I used to watch VHS tapes, pausing and staring at the blurry sets behind the director. I scanned through “art of” books looking for design sketches and digging for techniques. However, no amount of books or VHS tapes could help me answer the most important question: “how did you do that?”

Back then in 1995, there were no workshops or galleries showcasing concept art. In fact, the entire entertainment industry was shrouded in secrecy. The designers I admired were only reachable by imagination and a career in this business seemed impossible.

But that was 1995. Today, the world is a lot smaller. We can now meet our favorite designers in person, ask questions, and above all – watch them demonstrate their techniques live! The entertainment design industry is now exploding with fresh talents and amazing artworks.

I’m honored to present Master Designer Workshop 2012, featuring some of my favorite designers and friends. Daniel Dociu, Kekai Kotaki and Sangjun Lee are responsible for some of the coolest blockbusters in games and films. Their jaw dropping portfolios and impressive client lists speak for themselves.

So I hope you can attend this event and ask them that all important question, “how did you do that?”
