By reflecting the concept in illustrations and layouts, it is a convincing deliverable.
Why don't you convey what you want to say with easy-to-understand illustrations?
This is a class where you can learn all the structure of an illustration that “conveys a concept” from an illustrator.
“I want the illustrations I draw as a hobby to have a message and convey them”
“I started working as an illustration, but I'm not good at making suggestions to clients”
This is a class that trains “illustration thinking ability” useful for illustrators who feel this way and for all those who want to illustrate the ideas they want to convey.

When you take the course
You can take both digital and analog courses.
Instead of learning how to draw pictures, the content is about learning how to make pictures to convey concepts and feelings.
3 reasons why this class is so special
① It's easier to come up with ideas, and you'll be able to draw illustrations that “convey more”
The content is useful for people who draw illustrations with any touch, such as concepts, ways of thinking, how to find ideas and motifs, layouts, etc.
② Useful for illustrators who want to advance their careers, such as proposed variations to clients and how to devise layouts
Everything we feel and see in our daily lives becomes material for “ideas” and “motifs.” Illustrations, which are nonverbal expressions, are also useful for conveying feelings to people overseas.
③ You can create compelling illustrations
Illustrations that convey concepts and ideas are persuasive. It's full of useful ideas not only for illustrators, but for everyone who creates presentation materials and proposals. Let's make use of what we've learned in this class and connect it to work!

[Creator Interview]
Q. What led you to start your current activities?
A. I've been drawing illustrations since I was a student, so while vaguely thinking that I should get a job where I could make use of something, I didn't feel like I could eat just by drawing, so I learned graphic design at a vocational school and got a job as a designer. While I was working, I really wanted to draw pictures, so I started working as an illustrator.
Q. Please give a message to the students!
A. I would be happy if people could feel that coming up with ideas is not that difficult by breaking down the conceptual words as simply as possible. Also, I would be happy if people knew how much everything they feel and see in their daily lives becomes material for “ideas” and “motifs.”
I would be happy if people who want to enjoy their own illustrations more as a hobby and those who want to do illustration work can use this course according to their needs. Illustrations, which are nonverbal expressions, are also useful for conveying feelings to people overseas.
