“I want to try making emoticons...”

I want to create emoticons, and at first glance, the work itself doesn't seem very difficult, but it doesn't have a fixed and complete method, and it doesn't mean that they are unnecessarily popular because they draw well. Also, because hard work doesn't mean that it's easy to approve or become a popular emoji, so rather Trying to get started is overwhelmingI've heard a lot of stories about.

In order to ease the feeling of getting started a little bit, I'm going to create a class where FUNPPY can start with emoticons step by step from the beginning based on the experience that FUNPPY has gained from creating characters and emoticons.

In particular, I hope this class will be helpful for those who want to create emoticons lightly, those who want to be an emoji artist, and those who are new to emoji writers and have concerns.

If you use emoticons frequently and like characters,

Don't hesitate.

An image explaining the concept


Instead of designing characters and creating emoticons, it's probably time to plan an emoji first and design a character accordingly. Perhaps it's time to take a slightly new approach to creating.

At the same time, I will naturally learn about actual work processes such as programs.


So what kind of things will you learn

Let's dive in a little bit more?


1. You'll learn how to plan and write emoji messages.

개념을 설명하는 이미지

Depending on how you organize the same topics, the content of the emoticons and the appearance of the characters

It can be different, so for those who are trying to make emoticons for the first time

I think this process is important.



2. I'm going to create a character based on a planned message.

Have you ever had a very difficult and difficult experience of drawing something on white drawing paper? (Especially the characters) The message I planned earlier can be a hint to solve this problem. I'm going to look at some ways to make use of each person's own tastes and change their individuality.



3. Let's compose an emoji set with a character you've created.

Once a character has been created, it's time to take that character and look like an emoji (?) To be visible

I'm going to draw an emoji with a few elements to actually work with a message.



4. Now for the real work!

Well now, the preparations are complete!

We will work together step by step looking at programs for actual work.

A stationary emoji or a moving emoji that we know

Let's take a look at how to make it?


If you don't know the program well, don't worry.

You don't need difficult features to create emoticons.

I'll let you know just as much as I need for the job!



5. Done before you know it?!

Once you've completed the chapters, you'll learn all the steps required to create emoticons.

However, I will edit and show the work in the video, so if you only need to do the work in the video

When you're stubborn, you may not be able to finish the actual work.


That. Rae. standing. You might have to do some homework!

You'll follow along very hard, right? :)



6. Other tips+tips and secret questions

Based on the experience gained by making dozens of domestic and overseas emoticons by hand

Things to check when preparing for release, copyright, character data management, etc.

Tips to know in the early stages, the production program, environment, equipment used, production period,

I'll tell you everything you were secretly curious about!



If you like characters and enjoy using emoticons

You're already ready to create emoticons.


Now, let's go to the fun world of emoji creation with FUNPPY.
