Sometimes you’ll need to pitch or express an idea quickly. In this video, we go over some foundational perspective sketching techniques to get your design ideas across.

Outline:

4:37 HL & VP variations
5:14 Isometric projection
5:45 Complex shapes
6:08 Ellipses

*Note on slopes: if an object has multiple angles within it, each angle will get its own vanishing point. For example, if you had a stack of boxes that were at random angles, each box would have 2 vanishing points, but those vanishing points would be different from the other boxes’.
