Description of the programme
Illustrators see themselves as artistic partners of editorial offices, advertising agencies, design offices, publishing houses, museums, game and film productions. They are not only in demand as service providers, but also contribute their ideas, experience and creative attitude in an advisory capacity. They usually work as freelancers. The language of images is universal—that is why the world is open to illustrators.
Depending on specialisation and inclination, the range of tasks ranges from children's book illustrations, to magazine pages, to advertising campaigns, to infographics, to scientific illustration, to packaging design, to concept art for computer games. Especially in comics, graphic novels, animation films and other, artistically freer projects, illustrators appear as independent authors.
