"The best way to learn is to do it"
Cartoon Shrink Plastic Art
Do you wish to turn your idea into a unique product where you can gift to friends or people you love and knowing that they will always keep it with them, and never to forget about you?
The best way is to create avatars of the person you want to gift and turn that drawing into a personalised keychain or tag where they can easily carry with them.
Whether you have graduated or graduating from school soon and wish that your arty idea can make magic moment (when you hand them your “perfectly imperfect hand-made gift”), this workshop is meant for you.
To get started right away, you shall learn the basis of cartooning a face, body and facial expression that matches your avatar (or the person you going to gift to). You will then trace your creation over a shrink plastic and colour it. Cut it to the size you want, punch a hole and heat it in an oven. Place a key chain over your art and it is ready as a gift!

Rediscover Comics Making: Comic Strip
If you enjoy reading manga or watching your favourite anime, it is very likely you may be aspired to be a storyteller.
Not just any storyteller, but one that draws and write a visual story.
The truth is you need to be gifted in order to be a good storyteller! Gifted does not mean talent. To be gifted means you need to accept who you are, and fulfill these following conditions:
> You have imaginary friends and you know they exist in your mind
> You always doodle some funny images on your textbook or on pieces of paper
> You enjoy writing down your ideas in your diary
> You feel that there is another world that is more exciting than the one you live in
> You feel that you are the main character in that world and you have friends that supported you
> You have a great story to show and you are constantly searching for ways to do it
If you have at least one of the above requirement, it is a proof you are gifted and you need to believe that you are born-to-be a comics artist, and this workshop shall show you what it is required for you to get the story out from your mind and be drawn onto paper.
