What I like the most in the design industry?

As a typical Asian, I watched a lot of Japanese animation since I was young until now I still often watch some Japanese animation. I am a huge Japanese anime fan because I like the illustration style in Japan, especially the style of the characters.

Therefore, I want to try working in this industry in Japan if possible. When I watch the animation, I am not only watching the story but also looking at their animation style, every anime has their specific styles. While, the fact is that my major is graphic design so it is slightly different to Japanese animation, therefore, it may be challenging to me, however, I would like to apply the similar illustration style into my graphic works.

I looked at many examples as inspiration and I think I can create some similar in my graphic design career e.g brands or some Japanese style of illustrations.

It is true that I am a person who really addicted on the Japanese anime/manga style of illustration, however, it is too difficult to draw because Japanese anime style of illustration is very detailed, especially the eyes. Therefore, I looked at those simplified versions of Japanese anime style sketches which I think is more fit to my ability.

Simply, they can be matched with the graphic works for example posters or even web interface. Therefore, I think this is the point that I can focus more on. (6A2)



This is the typical Japanese manga/anime character look like, as it is really detailed so it is quite difficult to draw without learning the theory and skills that how to draw manga characters, especially the colour and shadows. 





While, these are the simplified style of Japanese manga character drawing, everything is simplified so it is much easier for me to draw this kind of things. (6B2)
