This crash course will give artists – as well as developers – the tools needed to start creating pixel art.
Aside from being retro and awesome, Pixel art has been gaining recent popularity because of how approachable it is for “non-artists.” In this workshop, participants will be shown the basics of pixel art and animation tools for Adobe Photoshop.
Skill Level Required: No experience necessary, but beginner-level exposure or higher to Photoshop is recommended
Install Prior to Workshop: Adobe Photoshop; Free 30-day trial available here.
