Learn the nuances and its applications.
Speaker

Comic Book Page: The Making
Comic book characters are active, always moving, fighting and gesturing to advance the story. They cannot afford to look flat or out of proportion. The artists have to balance two jobs: drawing exciting character art and drawing it fast. Sketching cartoon characters or even making one up of your own can be great fun.
Speaker

10.10AM to 10.45AM: Session 3
Developing Strong Characters for Animation
A strong character is extremely important to tell a story. The story needs to be entertaining and interesting regardless of the piece you are creating.
