The students dived deep into the world of Character Design with Masa San. They conceptualized and created the Indian mythological characters in the Manga Art format. Yukihiro Tsujita San from Kyoto Seika university joined online for real time evaluation of students work. The students came up withtruly amazing and interesting characters at the end of the session. The students also attended the session on UX/UI and had a new perspective on the topic.
