I'll work with you on the process of breathing life into characters
1) Keep the setting and story solid
▶ ︎ KakaoTalk emoji approval history
I think the reason why the various emoticons I created were approved is because of the solid character settings. The beginning of various character content begins with “solid character creation.” Through character creation know-how, which is the core of emoji production, I would like to show you how to find the perfect character for you.

The character's power of color is powerful. Warm tones (Warm Tones), Cool Tones (Cool Tones), vibrant Vivid (Vivid), gentle pastels (Pastel), etc. Express the character's mood and personality depending on what color you useYou can do it.

Through classes My know-how on color selection criteria and methodsI'll let you know. Let's bring your characters to life by learning how to use colors.
Smooth without interruption! Animated emoticons
If you've filled in colors that match the character's mood and even created an emoticon that's still there, nowIt's time to challenge moving emoticons. It's a good idea to capture the character's personality you've set in the emoticon's movements. How to set a personality and what kind of movements should I give Let's learn.

Use 200% of characters

How to find the right print shop for youet How to reduce the difference between digital colors and printed materials I'll deal with the back. Take a look at the goods you can make using emoji characters, and make your own!
To be able to truly “create” emoticons
“When this happens, do it this way, do it like that.” Many classes instill the teacher's style in students. If you learn the same way with the same education system, you will only get the same results.
There's no formula for creating emoticons. If you go through a brainstorming process and learn with me how to understand the principles, you'll create emojis you've never seen anywhere else.

OOAI
Hello! I'm the artist OOAI (OOAI).
Hallo I'm the artist OOAI (OOAI), who greets you for the first time in class 101. I studied fine arts at Sungshin Women's University, Hongik University Graduate School, and The Art Students League of New York. Currently, I'm creating various contents with characters such as “Pochon Chon,” “Posh,” “Pora,” and “Pleu,” and giving lectures on various educational platforms.
A compound word of emotion (emotion) and icon (icon),
Emoticon (Emoticon)
From hand letters and text messages to today's social media messages such as KakaoTalk and DM, people have conveyed their intentions and information to others in writing. However, people couldn't capture all of their emotions (emotions) in writing. Therefore, each generation has used symbols in a variety of ways.
As such, today's emoticon (emoticon) is being used as a medium to convey one's own feelings and situations in place of a novel description in writing. Now I'm here to help you plan and create your own emoticons, which can be called the “revolution of characters,” as a means of communication for modern people.
