What's included
1 live meeting
50 mins in-class hoursClass Experience
We will begin the class with a discussion about some of our favorite Anime. I will guide the class through the intricacies of what makes an anime appeal to its audience, how the story structure is used to intrigue and entertain, and what the art does to help the audience connect with the story and characters. After the class discussion, I will give an impromptu drawing lesson on a topic the class chooses or by offering guidance on projects that students are currently working on. All students will have the opportunity to present their own art struggles and ask for help with their art.
Learning Goals
Students will gain an appreciation for story and art by connecting different building blocks of the students' favorite anime to their own art.
Other Details
Parental Guidance
We will be analyzing art from popular anime series. Often mainstream anime series will portray graphic scenes and/or characters in dress that would not be considered family friendly. All images shared for study in this class should be appropriate for all audiences since learners come from all types of families and walks of life.
Supply List

Teacher expertise and credentials
I have loved drawing since I was a young boy. As a professional artist, I love to see imagination and creativity come alive! I believe that anyone can be an artist, and inside every child lies a unique storyteller waiting to be awoken. The stories of life through the filter of imagination compel us to live life to its fullest extent. Anime is my favorite storytelling genre because I believe this very philosophy has been captured by many beautiful anime series.
Every class I teach will heavily focus on visiting imaginative worlds through the works of others (books, movies, videos, anime, games, and art) as well as through creating our own characters and their worlds. The difficulty of my art classes range from beginner to advanced so no matter what your student is looking for, I have a class that will fit their skill level. My classes mainly focus on art tutorials, character design, the art of storytelling, analyzation of stories, and the creation of our own stories.Reviews
