Summary: "This is the definitive guide for all aspects of scenic hand drafting for film and television, now comprehensively updated and revised for its second edition. Author, David McHenry, utilizes 40 years of experience as a Designer, Art Director, Storyboard Artist and Draftsman to provide readers with an accessible step-by-step guide of professional techniques, tools and workflows. Readers will discover how to draw the iconic scroll of a classical column or learn the difference between Flemish and English bond brickwork, as well as all four types of drafting projection in detail: isometric, oblique, orthographic, and axonometric. Also included is hard-to-find information on lens angles and their calculation for different screen aspect ratios, how to create a lens projection image of a set with a given lens, height and aspect ratio, and how to create forced perspective. Beautifully illustrated with carefully crafted hand-drawn illustrations on every page, this thoroughly revised text has been updated to include new examples and exercises and a revised glossary, making it the ideal step-by-step guide to hand drafting for film and television. This is an essential resource for students of drafting for film and television, scene design, and art direction courses. It will also hugely benefit professionals studying or working in film and television design"--
