Virtual Reality for Artists: How to Bring Illustrations into 3D with Tilt Brush

Ever wonder what it would be like to step inside your artwork? Join me to learn how to bring your illustrations to life in Virtual Reality with Tilt Brush!
This class is geared toward people with experience in illustration, painting, or 2D design, who are curious about drawing in 3D space in Virtual Reality. VR artwork has been gaining a lot of attention, but often it has a look about it that speaks to the program it was created in, and not an artist's particular style. I want VR to be a tool that serves your individual art style, and has all the benefits of VR's ease and gesture.

In this class we will cover:

Understanding the history of VR and examples of how artists use it
Getting oriented in VR and how to use it safely
Preparing your illustration for VR by recreating in Photoshop in depth
Getting started in Tilt Brush and how to make creative decisions in a new dimension
Sharing your work through video, photos, and GIFs
I'm hoping that this class makes working in this new tech feel really approachable, because it's not all that hard. And VR is done best with YOUR individual style to bring it to life.

This isn't a survey of every single button in Tilt Brush, but we cover much of it - I focus on what's relevant to illustrators! Let's jump in!

Note: To follow along directly, you will need a VR headset (I use the Oculus Rift) and the Tilt Brush by Google app.
