Digital Anime Camp: Design Your Own Original Character in Procreate

A four-day camp for ages 10 to 14. Learners design an original anime character and take it from pencil-style sketch to clean, coloured digital artwork in Procreate.

Class Experience

Each day covers one stage: design and sketch, clean line art, flat colour, then cel shading and a simple background. The teacher demonstrates on a shared screen and checks each learner's canvas. Learners finish with one polished character they designed themselves.

How classes work

The camp meets 4 days in one week for 50 minutes a day, with up to 5 learners. Each day builds on the one before.

What we'll cover

  • Day 1: Design and Sketch – Shape, hairstyle, outfit and pose.

  • Day 2: Line Art – Clean lines on a new layer.

  • Day 3: Flat Colour – Palette and colour fills.

  • Day 4: Shading and Background – Cel shadows, highlights and a simple backdrop.
