Explaining the Brief (5 mins):In this workshop you are going to invent some interesting characters and then draw them in the manga / anime style. Manga is the term for Japanese comics, and anime is the term for Japanese animations – both are aimed at a more mature audience.
Quick look at Manga/Anime styles (10 minutes)Guide a discussion using the following questions along with the PPT images.What are some of the common features of manga/ anime characters?
large eyes, small noses, tiny mouths, flat and round faces, flowing hair often covering facetransparent pupils or reflections in eyes are exaggerated. To show death (real or psychological), pupils become darker or lose the reflections.again with eyes, shape of eyes reflects state of character – love hearts, stars, spirals, flames, ‘x’ shaped to show different emotional statesmouths are small and simple, but also reflect emotional states - ‘o’ mouth for surprise, fang or triangle for mischievousnessnoses are also small, if present, with ‘l’ shape most common.
Are male/female anime figures different – how so? (eg fewer male anime characters, males are more life-like than females

NOW it’s your turn to make a creative matrix and invent a range of characters, some heroes, some villains, some other things. You can use the ideas we have already started with, OR start from scratch with new idea. You can work with a partner or own your own – your choice. After 15 minutes we will share our best 3 ideas for characters. After 15 minutes, stop the class, have students move to sit in new pairs, then share their most interesting characters. Sketching New Characters (20 minutes)Now you can use your new manga sketching skills to invent some looks for some of your favourite new characters.

Explaining the Brief (5 mins):In this workshop you are going to learn about how Leonardo da Vinci inspired aircraft design, and you will invent and model your own aircraft of the future. Show PPT
Key questions to discuss:how do you think Da Vinci developed his ideas about flight? what kind of things would he have observed? so if you were designing a flying machine from scratch, what could you use for inspiration? now get in a group of 3 or 4 and list every single type of flying machine you can think of…now make a list of things in nature that move in interesting ways, not necessarily flying, but a good way of moving from a to beusing these two lists, match up some flying machines and animals to start up some completely new ideas… have you considered things like: a side-winding helicopter… an 8 legged stilt walking zeppelin that uses its legs to skim over surfaces… an airbus that has an articulated spine and dolphin dives… (now choose your most interesting and innovative idea to work on and build in Google Sketch UpHighlight that Da Vinci was designing flying machines in 1480s that were not built/trialled etc until hundreds of years later.
Creating Models (55 mins):Before you create your incredible new flying machine, you will need to add in this intriguing object, which will be an essential item for flying machines in the future. Again, you will need to think about:how big it is compared to the aircrafthow it might help or hinder your aircraftif it is ESSENTIAL or just AESTHETIC for your aircraftwhat it might change into… OR if it might cause part of your aircraft to changeYou can also break it apart, use one or all pieces of it, add parts, subtract parts, morph parts into something different
