How to use pencil technique effectively on Video

[Mike Lin]

Attached is a pencil technique on video using a regular 6B pencil or can be a Prismacolor black pencil. Tips are bold in blue and taught by BeLoose Graphic Workshop:

• outline building with Constant Fuzzy Line and Hit-go-Hit.
• outline trees with Variable Fuzzy Line using leaf language (McDonald, Wendy).
• apply Tone Line with 45 Degree Strokes and Gradual Value Change.
• apply sky with High Contrast Line to pop the building and make it whiter.
• emphasize Focal Point by applying darker value toward center of drawing on trees and grass.
• leave front of building and top of the tree white.
• remember to Draw Small without touching the Edge of paper.

Try a few times and you will become very comfortable in Pencil Technique.  Enjoy.
