Hello!
I often receive messages of aspiring designers
who do not dare to sketch and are worried about making mistakes.
who do not dare to sketch and are worried about making mistakes.
To help you overcome this fear,
I am giving a 7-day sketching challenge to my students!
I share with you the videos drawing tutorials of the week showing you step-by-step a method on CAMERA DRAWING EASY!
Since the camera become digital, the forms have evolved a lot. The pictures are now no more stored in the film but in tiny memory cards.
The Go Pro Camera has a rectangular lens while most DSLR cameras have a cylinder shape.
We’ll start by drawing a box and in the details to build up the drawing.
But first, make sure to download the Designer Starter Kit first! 🙂
You will need to practice the basics of a 2-point perspective here.

STEP 1: DRAW WITH REFERENCE PICTURE | DISCOVERY
- You start the first attempt using reference pictures.
- You analyze the product from different angles.
- You memorize how the camera is built by drawing it multiple times.
- You are not afraid at making mistakes. You are studying the product.
STEP 2: REDRAW THE CAMERA STEPS| MEMORY
Now you draw it again with confidence and with 90% from memory. You look at the pictures only for some details if needed.
Suddenly,
- The perspective gets better
- Your lines get more clean and fluid
- The light reflection is improved
- The details are also sharper
- The overall presentation looks more professional
EXTRA: DRAW SMALL DETAILS BIG
A good way to improve your drawing skills is to draw big small details.
TIP: Remember to clean your ballpoint pen once in a while to avoid the inkblot on your sketches!

Hi Chou-Tac,
Thanks for the demo – It’s really great. I get a lot out of seeing your hand, pen and paper when you do analogue sketching.
Could you comment on drawing textures and materials at some point? Maybe show us some simple use of color?
Cheers mate!
Luke 🙂
