Manga Composition and Presentation<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In order to replicate traditional manga techniques to a digital format I\u2019ve been taking class work and researching what programs and ways I could use to do so. I\u2019ve been recommended \u201cClip Studio Paint\u201d and have purchased it to begin working my way around the program. I\u2019ve also decided to complete the semester long manga drawing class by using the digital format rather the tradition format used in class. This passing weekend I\u2019ve purchased two books from a local second-hand book store. These titles were \u201cAkira Club\u201d, and \u201cAkira\u201d Issue 6\/6 (japanese edition) both by the legendary Katsuhiro Otomo. I will be using these to research panel arrangement techniques within manga and composition of art pieces within publications. Next I hope to find examples of good composition from lookbooks of well known fashion or just well developed streetwear brands in general. After I will looking into how companies merchandise their independent properties and how they target their audience.

Architectural research and Travel <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In terms of research on Shibuya-ku, Tokyo\u2019s architecture, I\u2019ve booked a 3 day long trip to the area along with Shinjuku and Akihabara to get the lay of the land and take landscape photographs in to study and replicate what makes the city look the way it does in terms of architecture and, crowding. I hope to have enough photo content to get a grasp of how this architecture works in order to draw it more confidence and precision.

Reflection This week<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As I look deeper into the processes of creating each element I believe this is something I can achieve as long as I balance the amount of content per element. For example If I do too much of the manga I won’t have time for any of the other portions. Also, time management is very important as some of the elements require other parts to be completed first.
