Webtoons Winter Creator’s Summit

This past Friday, I had a terrific time at the Webtoons Winter Creator’s Summit.  Over 100 creators attended, and it had a dozen first-rate guests!  Spirits were high among the attendees, a very young international crowd.

My favorite segment was on the topic of transitioning from Webtoons Canvas to the higher-tiered Webtoons Original, with author Yaruno of Immortal Weakling and one of his Originals editor (sorry, not sure if it was Tyler Beckett or Ethan LeBlanc).  The talk featured a number of slides showing the difference between Canvas scenes and their Originals counterparts, showing how the author had expanded and elaborated on major scenes.

Also fascinating were two art demos from Jackson’s Diary‘s Paolo Patalla and 21st Century Knight‘s Plastic Bottru.  Lots of creative ideas, a list of various apps I need to investigate, and fantastic energy I’d love to bottle up and parcel out as needed!
