In this hands-on workshop, you’ll step directly into the world of Visual Storytelling — the foundation of concept design, from environments to characters — and learn how to communicate ideas, emotions, and narrative using images instead of words.
In just 3 hours, you’ll work alongside an industry professional and discover what visual storytelling truly means: composition, light, color, silhouette, and the art of giving the viewer just enough to complete the story themselves.
Yes, you will actually create your own visual narrative!
