At the end of March, costume ILL
Phillip Boutté Jr. was invited to
do a workshop in Florence, Italy, by
Schoolism, the first online school for
Concept Art, created by Bobby Chiu.
He was honored to take part in the
two-day workshop, alongside several
very talented, well-known concept
artists. Boutté's workshop focused on
what it is like to collaborate with a
Costume Designer, character thumb-
nail ideation, creating variations of
costumes based on a singular idea,
and overall conceptual workflow.
There is only one school in Florence
that teaches concept art so the stu-
dents were ecstatic to be able to par-
ticipate in such a workshop.
