Drawing Tutorials Cartoons
There are three ways drawing cartoons can be presented. Drawing cartoons can be presented in print, such as in comic book; they can be presented in animation through the Internet; and they can be presented on television broadcast. All three media presentations require that the cartoon figures be drawn. Before digital media, drawing cartoons was dependent on drawing the figures by hand, but today we have digital media and computer programs that allow us to draw, and then animate the cartoons. One such program for drawing cartoons for web or print is Adobe Illustrator. The difficulty with using this powerful program is learning it. There are drawing tutorials for cartoons but most are meant for drawing the cartoons by hand. This video tutorial available through this website teaches those interested in drawing in a fast, fun, and easy way.
The tutorial teaches through a series of videos where the student follows step by step instructions to complete a drawing of a helicopter and its surrounding background. Once the student completes the tutorial, he or she is able to draw any shape or form imaginable, whether the shape is that of a cartoon or shape of a real life object. The tutorial concentrates on using the Pen Tool which is the main tool required to draw shapes and figures.
