My Takeaway from the event “The Storytelling of Art: A Guide to Concept Design”

 


The event titled “The Storytelling of Art: A Guide to Concept Design” was a live webinar organized by The Skyrocket Collective and conducted via Google Meet on November 28, 2025, from 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM. The session was led by Ms. Candice Torres, who served as the resource speaker. The webinar focused on the fundamentals of concept design and how visual storytelling plays an important role in animation, games, and film.


From our organized webinar, I learned the importance of concept art in film and game animation. I believe concept art, from the word “concept,” gives life to the idea in visual form, like, for example, if you have a written plot, script, or gameplay. In my opinion, creating concept art is necessary for the client and director to see the vibe or approach of everything they imagined before the storyboarding She also shares her process in making concept art, and I am amazed at how she renders her art. 

Also, I learned from Ms. Candice that the use of grayscale in creating art is important to improve your art for the right color theory and shading, and that is my biggest takeaway from the webinar: to really practice drawing in grayscale and then next with the color for overall better composition and position of the art.

The webinar I attended was “Introduction to IT Acquisition,” held on September 3,2025, and facilitated by the Information Technology Development Center (ITDC) with guest speaker Engr. Medel E. Aligan , a GPPB-recognized trainer. The session focused on the legal foundations, procurement strategies, challenges, and sustainable practices in ICT acquisition in the Philippines. The seminar was very informative; I got to learn about Republic Act 12009 and why it is important when creating software or a system. But for me the major takeaway from this seminar is the whole process for planning and the decision-making. Making the process efficient and cost-effective.

My Takeaway from the online course entitled “Introduction to Visual Graphic Design”

The online course I completed was entitled “Introduction to Visual Graphic Design” and was conducted under the TESDA Online Program through the National Institute for Technical Education and Skills Development (NITESD) . The online course focuses on developing skills in creating visual designs using design principles and digital tools while applying quality standards, workplace professionalism, and knowledge of laws relevant to the ICT sector.   There are a lot of courses available under Visual Graphic Design III, but I chose to enroll in "Introduction to Visual Graphic Design" because it will help me the most right now, especially with my program, BSEMC.

Also, a lot of the lessons here are beneficial for the practicum, such as applying quality standards and workplace professionalism. My key takeaway from this online course is that throughou...
