*Term 3* Manga Club with Campbell Whyte

Description

✨Gon by Masashi Tanaka✨

Join comics-maker Campbell Whyte as we dig deep into the techniques and materials used to create Manga.

In this eight week course we will be studying the explosive and playful work of Masashi Tanaka, creator of the beloved series Gon. From page layout and pen types to toning and lettering. We’ll explore all the different techniques that Tanaka uses to bring their incredible series to life.

Across eight different activities, we will be exploring both fundamental comics making skills as well as advanced drawing techniques. Comics is an incredible medium that combines aspects of visual arts, graphic design, calligraphy and literature into something wholly unique.

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.

Our small class size of only 12, means that each student will get the feedback and attention they need in order to achieve their best outcome.

Sunday morning session runs at 9.30am – 11.00am from the 21st of July until the 15th of September
