Episode 1 in a collection of architecture tutorials for environment artists. This series of tutorials approaches teaching architecture in a way that is relevant to artists who work on games or films. Technical structural engineering information is relayed alongside architecture design principles, through visual diagrams and my own lecture.
Each video will cover a general topic that branches into a wider story about the design of buildings. In this episode reinforced concrete frames are the main topic, where tension and compression are also introduced as the main forces that dictate how a frame is designed.
