The word anime -- pronounced "ah-knee-may" -- is an abbreviation of the word animation. In Japan, the word's used to refer to all animation. Outside of Japan, it's become the catch-all term for animation from Japan.
For decades, anime was produced by and for Japan -- a local product, with a distinct look-and-feel to not just the artwork but the storytelling, the themes, and the concepts. Over the last forty years, though, it's become an international phenomenon, attracting millions of fans and being translated into many languages. A whole generation of viewers in the West have grown up with it and are now passing it on to their own children.
Your Project:
You are to keep basic proportions but exaggerate certain facial features in an Anime style.
You will receive hand outs that have examples of different eyes, noses, ears, mouths, and hair.
You will color your artwork using oil pastels!
The artwork should still represent YOU! So, think of features that are special to YOU!
