Learn the fundamentals of Clip Studio Paint,  software that many animators and comic designers call ‘an essential part of creating a character’. In this 3-week workshop you will develop an understanding of the tools and capabilities of Clip Art Studio and how to implement its unique features into a critical and polished workflow.  Furthermore, we will compare and contrast Clip Studio with the capabilities of Adobe Photoshop and the when and why you should one or the other program in building your creations. Start with a blank slate (IPAD) and in 4 weeks finish with developed character/s to springboard your creativity, illustrations, and/or comic book narrative.
