Manga Style

Value-first. Screentone feel. Panel staging. Distinct from full-color anime.

Tenets

  1. Design in grayscale values first
  2. Screentone / hatch textures sparingly
  3. Speed lines and emphasis FX
  4. Expressive faces / eyes per demographic
  5. Black-heavy compositions OK

Vs anime-style

Anime = color cel; Manga = print value language (can still be 3D color with manga staging).
