Here, students gain a broad insight into manga, cover art, illustrations, and more from top professionals. Cutting-edge digital tools are used to hone techniques, and students develop their imagination to create new stories and characters.

This course uses a range of media—anime, games, smartphone apps—to help students gain expressive skills and develop the key skills needed by animators and character designers. They master video-processing applications and 3D CG software operations and develop work production skills.

This course helps students take visual communication on board, by teaching graphic advertising and web design. Students engage in market research, plan image strategies, and create advertising, logos, and packaging to show products in their best light. They also work on branding projects with companies and local governments.

Illustrators are working in an ever-growing number of areas, encompassing picture books, websites, apps, signboards, and more. Students learn wide-ranging content, including drawing by hand, digital illustration, figure production, and animation. They will be nurtured as illustrators capable of making their presence felt in a range of media.

After teaching students how to design clothing and giving them insights into materials and sewing techniques, they make original clothing as part of this course. Students handle all aspects of the in-house fashion show, from model selection to production and acquire comprehensive direction skills in the process.

Students gain insights into the relationship between art and society, not only through their own personal production, but also through exhibitions, art projects, and teaching classes. Graduates can embrace active careers teaching art, working in companies, or becoming artists.

This course addresses accessories, furniture, public facilities, housing, and other lifestyle elements to nurture design professionals. This involves exploring materials such as wood, metal and fiber, learning about planes, solids, color composition and computer technology, and refining design ability from a user’s perspective.

Students learn how to design game graphics and gain repeated production experience. They get active guidance directly from game-makers themselves in an optimal and up-to-date learning environment. We use virtual reality and the very latest in game engines, including Unreal Engine 4.
