Concept art is the initial creation of the look, feel, and style of work from a design brief. It sets a project's tone and visual style and is a point of reference for everyone involved.
Visual storytelling is the key task of the Concept Artist. They imagine characters and worlds off the page and bring the story to life.
The role of the Concept Artist is crucial as their work will be the stylistic building blocks for the FC project.
