There are many important benefits to attending workshops in book publishing, illustration and animation, especially for those with creative interests. In the age of AI, those who are not creative will eventually be eliminated.

  1. Enhancing Creative Skills: The workshop provides an opportunity for in-depth learning and practicing of various creative skills. Whether it’s editing and design for book publishing, creative expression for illustration, or storytelling and animation techniques for anime, all of these can help students enhance their professional skills.
  2. Understanding the industry process: By learning about the book publishing process, such as editing, typesetting, designing and binding, you can better understand the entire process of taking a book from idea to finished product.
  3. Enhancing Visual Expression: Illustration and animation are both powerful tools for visual communication. Attending the workshop will help students master how to convey complex emotions, stories and concepts through images and enhance your visual narrative skills.
  4. Creative inspiration: Interaction with other participants and tutors can stimulate creative thinking and broaden students’ horizons
  5. Practice and Feedback: Workshops usually include hands-on activities and provide immediate feedback from tutors and peers. This interaction can help you quickly improve your work and understand your strengths and areas for improvement.
  6. Complete a full project: many workshops aim to complete a small project, which means you’ll have the opportunity to apply the knowledge and skills you’ve learned to create a tangible outcome that will be useful in building a portfolio.
