On July 6 (Sat.), The Kyoto College of Graduate Studies for Informatics (KCGI) and Kyoto Computer Gakuin (KCG) held a "Digital Drawing Lecture - Things to remember before drawing digitally" at KCGI Kyoto Station Satellite and KCG Kyoto Station School.Forty cartoonists and aspiring cartoonists gathered to hear professional artists explain the basics and key points that are often overlooked in digital cartooning.

After this, participants experienced digital production using "CLIP STUIDO PAINT," an illustration and manga production software developed by Celsys, Inc.The company's staff provided guidance.
