Lidwina Zita X Berkreartsi — Gardenscape Illustration Class

Lidwina Zita X Berkreartsi is a post-production video series project developed for an online masterclass in collaboration with illustrator Lidwina Zita and the educational platform Berkreartsi. The project centered on packaging a dense, highly technical digital art curriculum themed "Gardenscape Illustration" into an engaging, professional, and highly digestible instructional video series 🎨✍️

The primary post-production challenge was maintaining student retention and focus through long-form technical tutorials. As the video editor, I designed a balanced editing pace that seamlessly integrated theory with live software demonstrations. By utilizing clean on-screen text overlays, strategic zoom-ins, and dynamic pacing, the complex illustration process was broken down into clear, actionable steps 💻✨

The project is structured into a cohesive 5-part instructional video pipeline:

1. Observation: An introductory module teaching students how to visually dissect complex environments and train their artistic eye.
2. Plant Study: A technical breakdown of organic plant anatomy and how to simplify complex foliage into stylized digital illustrations.
3. Color Study: An educational dive into color theory, palette selection, and setting atmospheric moods for environments.
4. Highlight & Shadow: An in-depth guide focusing on dynamic lighting, light sources, and adding three-dimensional volume to digital paintings.
5. A conclusion and step-by-step walkthrough guiding students on how to compile their learned skills into a final independent project.
