Concept Designers are visual storytellers who create fantastic worlds, expressive characters and never-before-seen environments from their expansive imaginations. As artists, they create designs for entertainment properties in a variety of industries, including video games, film/tv animation, live-action film, theme parks and toys/consumer products. ArtCenter’s rigorous Concept Design program emphasizes artistic skill, technical ability, storytelling, and most importantly, thinking and creative problem-solving.
