Steve Brodner,

Illustrator, satirical artist, commentator

Celebrated Illustrator Steve Brodner opens up the process of creating illustrations for your portfolio, graphic memoir, comics: projects you want to pitch and the process of presenting them to the graphic arts industry. You will quickly have the keys to clearly, powerfully and beautifully made art with successful and compelling storytelling. This course focuses on individual instruction, where you are given personal guidance at each stage in the process. Every week will feature a quick project as well as long-term assignments. In addition to our scheduled meetings, The assignments will be tailored to your stories and style. You will finish the course with polished portfolio pieces. Steve will look at work and answer your questions during the week via email. The illustration marketplace is discussed and a lecture on self-promotion is a valuable component of the course. We also have guest stars of illustration visit and chat. This year we were visited by Frances Jetter, Koren Shadmi, Peter Kuper, Yao Xiao, among others. This course is open to all students.
