Drawing from Eye Level & Controlling Proportions Art Lesson (From Kim Jung Gi)

Clipped from Super Ani live stream (24/06/20)
Link to the full stream below. Kim Jung Gi gave a lesson at the end of his stream for his viewers about drawing from 'eye level' and using perspective lines to control the proportions of objects in your art, so I uploaded parts of it if anyone wanted to see it again. The full stream and channel has way more tips and content so go check them out.

I don't own this, I just edited it down. Hope you enjoy!

[@Jeremytwrich]

FYI to anyone coming by this video - these lessons and bunch Jung Gi goes over in his streams are from books by Marcos Mateu-Mestre's - "Framed Perspective Vol 1 & Vol 2". My girlfriend got them for me for my birthday after KJG talking about them in a video. HIGHLY RECOMMEND

[@broshbrolin2395]

Yeah i agree with its also vwry easy but fully fleshed to digest, the scott robertson one is just too heavy but they re similar, idk just saying

[@ArtisticVic]

Hey thanks for the info! I just ordered volume 1 on Amazon because of this comment.

[@baunaco]

U have the best girlfriend

[@janawatercolor]

Good to know. I am gonna get that book as soon as possible.

[@scarlet8078]

That is a very nice gift from your girlfriend. You learn everything in the books & don't let her down! 💞

[@drawingmaniacsterben7144]

this is actually i think one of the most important lessons from kim jung gi.

[@Berrywizarrd]

There's something about the way he draws and his tutorials, it really makes me so focus, the way he draws things it's so interesting. At first I thought it was gonna be quite hard for me to understand since I'm not that good at English, but it's not. I find THE WAY he draws is charming.

[@fis023]

the glazing is crazy

[@SergjDragunov]

??????????

[@eruston]

I have seen some demonstrations of his technique where he imagines each figure is in a box or rectangle, then, based on the lines going through the box at exactly the same height on each side, one can determine the trajectory of the perspective line for each feature of the character. Basically he is always thinking three dimensionally, imho.

[@BigDomski]

Oh wow, thank you for those edits! This is great for not having to go back to every stream 👌

[@drawforge9640]

Yes exactly

[@hellosketcher]

I will miss you forever, nobody can replace you. 😞😞😭

[@choosecheese3225]

This is truly eye-opening, holy shit.

[@TocharaehD]

Keep up the great work with these edits. These lessons are invaluable, and the channel needs way more attention than it is getting.

[@rafael_cardenas8167]

He must have been mastering it for 10 years omg how I wish I have the patience and perseverance like him goddamn my teachers are baby with his skills

[@salty_3k506]

10 years? More like 30 or 40

[@Factsfacts721]

Been doing it since 6 years old age

[@davidbohadana8274]

He was an amazing teacher, the way he simplify things and present them with ease and in a calm manner is not less impressive then his godlike skill.

[@pnutdraws]

It seems so 18,000 + people are eager to see his lectures, its cool that he is finally doing them in english, he has not been streaming for a bit now hopefuly the master is doing ok

[@rafa428]

im happy that i started to study perspective early, i hope i can get real good at this and maybe even get close to master gi's level! thx for the video

[@DanielForrest]

You can do it! Just keep practicing!!

[@janawatercolor]

Very useful video.As a Waterlor artist I sometimes don't pay attention to my drawing. This video is a good reminder for me to work on the drawing and getting the basics such as the eye level and perspectives right.

[@ScilexGuitar]

This was really helpful. Before the video I understood horizon line and perspective, but I did not think about setting a base length and compare other objects to it

[@Factsfacts721]

Super helpful

[@TiffanyNg100]

God bless him and everyone who push this video out

[@diegopasquini5964]

Thx both for the hard work🙏🏻, you`re the best.This lessons are like Gold for me, continue like this and don't give up!!! You have 100% of my support🌟

[@mrchristian8782]

this really helps me, now I can really draw with him in this one

[@mrchristian8782]

God bless!

[@Updoggo1]

this just blew my mind

[@12345bionicle1]

this is incredible, invaluable knowledge thank you so much

[@carlosmadriaga5696]

Fuiste el mejor... espero que sigas dibujando en el cielo

[@yugen1739]

thanks a lot for uploading all this super informative videos.....

[@hannah1896]

This idea seems simple but this is the one I didn’t know even though I practiced many perspective drawing, it will help for guessing lengths in perspective drawing .Thank you so much for sharing idea and hope I use it in my next drawing 🤓🤓

[@Schakal2556]

Great work, your channel should get more attention!

[@킴깨알]

와 눈높이에 따른 표현이라는걸 처음 배워봅니다. 정말감사합니다.

[@kronusart2396]

its so amazing to think artist can see what othercant see

[@DennisCNolasco]

Keep these KJG edits coming along Mike, very useful!

Is he mocking her or smthn lol if so I feel bad for her

[@SimplifiedToSee]

Thanks. You helped me a lot!

[@mysteriousguy2636]

Props to this translator

[@milddiffuse]

This helped me more than it should have

[@colbyrawiri]

You guys are awesome. Thank you!

[@huguiboogieman]

So can there be unlimited vanishing points? Or does it have to be set amounts? Like here hes got like 4 at some point in one of the drawings

[@salty_3k506]

Theoretically, each object can have their own vanishing point irrc, depending on how it turns in space

[@Avonbarksdaleable]

Everytime I hear the translator say his name, I hear "Jean-Guy"

[@kamelbenslama1791]

C'est son nom. Jean-Guillaume.

[@wadya69]

Man, you're just the best! Thanks for the effort of creating these videos! That's super helpful

[@anilkumarn8879]

Mike Bop,,,,,,thank you,,,,,so much,

[@AUFalcon64]

honestly learned so much thanks

[@TommyClemenza273]

One thing I dont understand though is about the chinese wall he started at 11:26, does each box he drew have its own vanishing point when theyre in a circle like that or do they all lead to the same one?.

[@MADHEWPRAGUE]

of course they have different vanishing points when they are in different agles

[@generaljb2760]

Good lord this is fire

[@tonycook7457]

love the instruction

[@syneac9662]

this was a mindblowing for me

[@bento9007]

Praise God

[@JeanneBook]

Thanks for this man

[@rahnumatahiti5457]

i have a really stupid question, how do you decide, how much is 1,8 m or 1 m, as he decided in the video. Such a great video, I guess I just need to watch all of it again. Many thanks for sharing.

[@christyhap]

you decide for yourself based on the size of the paper/canvas you are drawing on.

[@dellafsemiga]

Nice! Thankyou!

[@TarcilaArts]

I really wanted someone to subtitle this, I understand a little English but I still have difficulty. queria tanto que alguem legendasse isso, eu entendo um pouco de ingles mas ainda tenho dificuldade. af

[@hunni9478]

thx

[@su_a1227]

[@kimurastudios1482]

🙏

[@futurestoryteller]

Maybe it's redundant but he never explains where to place the feet. He just draws lines of different sizes across the plane and says "This is 180cm." Most teachers when explaining this concept specifically place the examples in a kind of single file line toward the horizon so it's more obvious how you determine the exact height.

[@JTT126]

Late message but if the eye level is established then as long as anything touches that eye level it’s gonna be that height. Doesn’t matter where the feet is

[@futurestoryteller]

@@JTT126 You could place two characters' heads of the same proportion, right next to each other and one of those person's legs could go all the way to the bottom of the page, while the other only goes halfway.

[@JTT126]

@@futurestoryteller yes. It would work according to my understanding of this concept. Assuming the floor has an even slope

[@xmoreno3366]

Thanksss ❤️

[@weishen6982]

I want to do perspective drawing but i dont know where to start

[@rafael_cardenas8167]

I really like his humor hahaha

[@junggongsuk7327]

great n fun tutorial. this is 10 meters tall humans. ha ha ha

[@jor1469]

RIP

[@ivant208]

Still cant get a fact that is he realy draw a 10 m person or is it a just an another 2 m person that just floating in space closer to the view ... ( probably u cant tell it - becose its all relative)

[@looopaa9783]

Jung Gi’s eye level be like 〰️ i get the eyelevel where there is a floor, but when he started drawing that block person vibin in the sky the perspective got lost to me

[@PokemonTrainerChris303]

That’s what the on micron is for?

[@franckrichard4092]

👍

[@CodCats]

genius

[@vokes80]

삼가 고인의 명복을 빕니다...

[@jasonkey7413]

Why is there multiple vanishing points?

[@hyperabs4950]

Because not necessarily all of the z-axis sides of objects inside a view are going to be parallel aligned.

[@scroptels]

poor translator, i sympathize.

[@karencartoon8763]

Scroptels Gluzar she did a very good job!!

[@SergjDragunov]

What is the kind of paper and pen you use :^)

[@Nola_Egypt]

[@Goaty_joy-cr8qk]

WHAT PEN DOES HE USE

[@JeffreySalazar-dr3ex]

plastic nib micron pen

[@TheDarkPatito]

soooo...... the eye level it's not necessarily the horizon?...i think i get it now

[@futurestoryteller]

But it is

[@thatonefrenchguy1806]

Your perception of the horizon changes depending on your eye level

[@salty_3k506]

No it's not the same. But in my experience it only really applies when you tilt your eye level or use distorted perspective. But usually if you're looking straight at the horizon, it will overlap with your eye level.

[@caughtrabbit]

90% of all drawing turorials on yt pale in comparison

[@blaz10nn18]

Nooo Kim Jung Un

[@f.creative]

Thanks for the lesson, but maybe you can just put the english subtitle

[@thethoreal]

= =" teacher......

[@reduXstereo]

This is very hard to do without using your brain.

[@senzanome7801]

Bel video del cazzo. PRIMA si disegnano le linee della prospettiva e POI si disegna il resto. Questo qui insegna a disegnare senza spiegare. Vi fa solo vedere che lui sa disegnare - ma allora? Che tutorial è, questo qui?

[@Anyeloides]

그냥 돈쓰고 번역가를 쓰는게 좋을듯..........

[@jimzkie5634]

Oh my, I'm wrongly using vanishing points all this time.. that's why my character sometimes is smaller or larger than items around it..

[@youareawesome7868]

You changed it now?

[@kix_l.m]

I think some artists try to make it seem more complicated, so they can make themselves seem more impressive. 🙄

[@davidneto6413]

Coloquem legenda em português. Seria ótimo!

[@rafael_cardenas8167]

it is the basis of your view the eyelevel then used as many vanishing point you want... and thats one of the hundred process its all about how we train and use our brain to view and draw all things in perspective
