Description

“I would like to leave behind a legacy like Maya Angelou and Toni Morrison with my manga/illustrative art.” On this episode we had Gigi Murakami (Koyuki Panda) who is an American freelance illustrator and manga (comic) creator. She specializes in traditional mixed media ink and color illustrations, and manga art. She has been featured in publications such as Buzzfeed, Black Girl Nerd and Gritty Vibes to name a few. She hails from the Bronx NY, loves and is influenced by horror and science fiction media and has her own Manga called the Mixed Tape Reel.We discuss the following things:   What character Gigi would love to cosplay? How did Gigi get into anime?  The brilliance of Akira and whether that was Akira scary? A tangent into horror movies! How Gigi got into illustration? Difference between concept art and illustration?  How Gigi found her style in terms of illustration?How Gigi finds creativity in improvisation with her lives rather the preparing?  What are some misconceptions of illustration and manga drawing? If Gigi could illustrate on any manga which one, would she choose and why? The hardest object to draw from Gigi’s perspective. Can you guess what it is?Does the industry need to do more for black and people of colour or should black and people of colour take it on themselves to do their own stuff? We end the show with the Suuuper quick fire roundCan you guess if Gigi is a morning or night person? This and more revealed. Gigi Murakami (Koyuki Panda) socials  Website: https://bio.site/WqBRzL Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/koyukipanda/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/KoyukiPanda You Tube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7wiIfLXVZECMN8TpnTZCzQ?view_as=subscriber If you enjoy the podcast, please don't forget to FOLLOW, RATE and REVIEW the show (it takes less than 30 seconds) Please do also share with anyone you fill will enjoy the show.
