    CREATE YOUR OWN Manga/Anime GRAPHIC NOVEL (ages 12-17) with Brad Gebhart
    6/6 - 8/1, 6-8pm | Intermediate | $150 MEM / $175 NON-MEM 

    Time to take your Anime drawing skills to the next level! You’ve learned to draw faces, convey emotions, illustrate bodies, clothing, fantasy creatures, chibi and robots.

    In previous classes we’ve touched upon action, story development and directing your own manga. In this class we will take all those skills and literally create a production ready,  3-4 page, full color story, based on your own characters. In addition, we will print a comic of all the student’s short stories into one larger manga graphic novel.

    The outcome of this class will be a compilation of your comics/short stories printed for you to keep! (Physical copies will be available to each student at a later date after the workshop is completed.) This class will guide and teach you the step-by-step process in creating an actual full color comic.

    Serious and inspired Anime artists wanted!
