Level up your drawing skills in a fun, interactive, full day workshop!

Participants will get an introductory insight to the industry whilst learning techniques that they can apply straight away! Perfect for beginners who wish to learn more as well as more experienced artists who want to push their work to the next level. These courses are a fantastic starting point for those who are curious about venturing into the competitive world of visual effects and entertainment design.

This workshop is aimed at students 14 and above with a passion for drawing.

Take this rare opportunity to learn from professional artists in a fun, engaging environment.

What you will need:

(All items are optional but highly recommended)

The instructor will demonstrate digital art techniques using Photoshop.

However you are welcome to use whichever software you are comfortable with or use paper/pen/pencils/markers etc. What you learn during the workshop will be transferrable to any medium :)

Hardware Recommendations

- A laptop and drawing tablet (eg. Wacom and Huion have good drawing tablets) so that you can follow along, as we do not supply any equipment for our workshops.

- iPads may be used, although they are better suited to using alternative software (see Software List)

Software Recommendations

- Adobe Photoshop - You can take up a 7-day trial if you haven't used it before and would like to try it out.

- Other drawing programs include Manga studio, Krita, Corel Painter, Heavypaint, or Gimp.

- For iPad users we recommend Procreate

What if I don’t have a laptop or drawing software?

You can use a sketchbook and pencils/pens/markers, but just be mindful that the instructor will demonstrate digitally. The foundations of what you'll learn will be transferrable to any medium.
