Interview with
Illustrator, Ixy
Question.01
What are the unique strengths of the instructor and the differentiating points of this course compared to others?
In this course, you’ll learn not only the secrets to improving your illustration skills but also key tips for making your work stand out on social media. Specifically, I have advised nine illustrators who were struggling to grow their SNS presence over three months, and I’ll share their real success stories with increases in likes and followers. Additionally, you’ll learn how to effectively showcase your finished illustrations through techniques like cropping and presentation.
Question.02
What do students studying in this field find most challenging, and how does this course help solve that?
This course is designed for illustrators who have received some recognition but feel their growth has plateaued and their motivation has dipped. You will learn practical SNS management strategies that leverage your drawing skills, including how to creatively showcase your art, which can be immediately applied to boost your online presence.
Question.03
Please share your thoughts on the market potential and future outlook for the illustration field.
Recently, more and more people are aspiring to become illustrators. However, the difficulty of getting your work noticed and gaining recognition is increasing each year. Simply being good at drawing is no longer enough, and it’s easy to get lost in the crowd. I believe that moving forward, illustrators will need not only drawing skills but also the ability to effectively promote themselves.
Question.04
Please share a message for the students.
I created this course hoping it would resonate with those who work hard but struggle to see results. In today’s world, where the skills required of creators are becoming more diverse, the barriers to starting and continuing can feel higher. Still, if you keep drawing steadily, you should be proud and keep pushing forward. I hope this course can be of some help to those people.
