✨Dragon Ball by Akira Toriyama✨

Join comics-maker Campbell Whyte as we dig deep into the techniques and materials used by Akira Toriyama to create his iconic series, Dragon Ball.

Over two days we will be studying the explosive and playful work of Akira Toriyama, creator of the Dragon Ball series. From page layout and pen types to toning and lettering. We’ll explore all the different techniques that Toriyama uses to bring their incredible series to life.

Essential skills such as narrative pacing, choosing the right moment for each panel and dialogue will be taught in depth alongside anatomy, perspective, shading and much more.

Comics is an amazing story-telling medium that combines aspects of visual arts, graphic design, calligraphy and literature into something wholly unique.
