About the class

Hello, I'm Yoo Jeong-seok, a pixel art designer. I've been working as a pixel art designer for about 5 years from 2017 until now, participating in various indie game graphics work, and I've shared my experience and know-how to pixel art beginners at the Game Academy.

Through the know-how I have built up as a pixel art designer, I have prepared a customized course for beginners so that you can easily follow pixel art without thinking too hard, with the goal of building a solid foundation so that you can create the work you want on your own. Through this class, I will not just follow along, but take you to the stage where you can find your own style and work. If you spend enough time practicing the basic techniques I'll teach you, you'll be able to fully digest any style.

What makes this class special

❶ The world of dots expressed using only Aseprite and the mouse

In this class, we'll only use a paid program called Aseprite and a mouse. If you are comfortable with a tablet, you can use a tablet, but it's not necessary, so anyone can get started right away without burdensome expenses. Aseprite is a program dedicated to pixel art and has an intuitive interface. I'll share the efficient work methods and know-how I use.

❷ From solid basic learning to creative object creation

There are many styles of pixel art. This style was divided by differences in resolution as computer capacity developed. In this class, I'll start with a solid basic pixel art technique that can handle various styles, create simple objects, and learn how to express hard-to-express natural objects such as rocks, trees, and clouds with pixel art to help you freely express creative objects.
