Sushio will hold a live drawing session covering action animation, character design, and his illustration techniques. There will be a live translator, and attendees are encouraged to interact with Sushio and ask questions. (Note that while attendees are welcome to draw along, Sushio will not provide direct feedback or instruction.)
Sushio will also attend on the opening night to interact with fans and sign autographs. Original artwork will be on display and available for purchase.
