Top 4 private universities in Kansai

The school has a wide range of majors, including design and animation. And the evaluation of acting, stage art and children's art is also very good.

Kyoto University of Plastic Arts has a large number of foreign students, and foreign students often account for about three fourths of the number of college students. The overall education direction of Beijing Manufacturing is business oriented. We hope that students will eventually step into the society and participate in social production with the goal of commercialization. Therefore, Beijing Manufacturing will also provide a stage for students to show themselves through exhibitions and exhibitions. Jingzao attaches great importance to the exhibition activities organized by students themselves, and also has a very developed exhibition system. Kyoto University of Plastic Arts has many majors, including art and design. In addition to the Japanese painting and oil painting majors belonging to the "Facade Department", the architecture department, landscape department, and the illustration, animation, and video biography of the information specialty are the advantageous disciplines of Beijing. Although both of them are well-known majors made in Beijing, these disciplines have different ways of cultivating students.

And Kyoto Seika University contrast:

Jingjing University in Kyoto is more powerful in cartoon related majors, character design and other majors.

School environment and evaluation

The campus is located at one of the 36 peaks of Dongshan Mountain on Baichuan Avenue, from the train field of Guasheng Mountain to the slope area, coexisting with existing trees. The school building is still Baichuantong, and even there is a teaching building above Guasheng Mountain. You can take the elevator to a broader square. At the same time, the school is equipped with barrier free facilities. The roof of Songlin Hall is an observatory, where you can look at the streets of Kyoto, see the four mountains except for the big characters in the five mountains, and see the big characters in some places.

With the reorganization of the university, the expansion of the campus and the prosperity of construction, the school built the Kyoto Art Theater and various buildings on the campus in 2001 to correspond to kabuki and opera. The trees in the campus are protected by the environmental design discipline, and the campus also presents the only red pine group in the East Mountain. In addition, there are Tokyo Miyagi Garden Campus (jointly set up by Tokyo Meiji Temple Garden/Northeast University of Arts and Engineering), and Osaka Satellite Campus (in Komatsubara cho, Central District, Osaka City, Osaka Prefecture/Osaka Fukuo Life Building).

Specialization in Art Environment

Japanese painting

stay Studying abroad in painting In the course, Japanese painting is regarded as "painting as space art", and the technology, materials and painting thinking required to achieve this goal have been improved. Through valuable works of cultural heritage of shrines and temples, students can learn something from the fact that they experience the beauty of Japan in Kyoto. Understanding the essence of painting is an important factor in creating the foundation of Japanese painting.

Oil Painting

stay Oil painting study abroad In the course, repeated experiments will be practiced while painting, and students will be trained in "hands (practical skills)" and "eyes (vision and feeling)". Students should not only be proficient in oil painting, but also experience the diversity of art by creating 3D objects, photos and unpainted conceptual art, so as to achieve their own painting performance. In addition, the school also provides opportunities and opportunities for works to appear in the society, such as exhibitions held in cooperation with the company and art fairs in graduation exhibitions.

Photography/video recording

It is a unique attempt of this course to learn photography and video art in order to keenly observe the world and human beings and cultivate a broad vision. Students can learn these contents in one course without dividing them into disciplines. In this course, not only photography skills will be developed, but also the social structure, history and theory behind the works will be developed, so as to develop creativity, observation and thinking ability.

spin

In this course, you will learn "dyeing" and "weaving", and cross cut various genres while applying these techniques. In Kyoto, the capital of dyeing and weaving, we will learn and pursue our own expression while experiencing "manufacturing from tradition to cutting-edge".

General modeling

In this course, students will learn various materials and technologies around the three fields of "pottery", "sculpture" and "contemporary art", and will challenge the production of all three-dimensional shapes. The "sculpture studio" for metal production, resin processing and wood carving is used to master clay based ceramic art, advanced equipment, and various forms of expression. No matter the size of the work or the existing genre, the use of the enabled "super studio" can implement separate modeling expressions.

Cartoon

Through the classroom of professional writers, we aim to become writers in school for the first time by cultivating various expression methods (such as basic skills of drawing cartoons and story composition). In addition, with the cooperation of major publishers, editors and current serial writers provide direct guidance to students.

Character design

The school will develop each expert by dividing the character design required in various situations into four areas: animation, computer graphics, games and character illustration. For this reason, it is necessary to promote the "production" of works to the world and design basis such as graphic design.

By linking each professional field with the curriculum for cultivating productive capacity, the school has developed the ability to develop a role material into various industries and media.

Visual communication

In addition to posters, books, videos, networks and other media as well as seemingly unrelated fields, we also need "design" and "design thinking" that can solve problems. Various things can be designed, such as conveying information in an easy to understand way and having the function of entertaining people. In this course, students will learn basic expressions, such as character and space production, editing, photography, video, HTML and computer language, and hone their skills and thinking when applying them to each professional field.

illustration

Illustrations are the expressions needed in various situations (such as advertising, packaging, SNS/Internet and festivals). In other words, by studying illustrations, students will acquire skills that have developed into a wide range of expressions and media, such as graphics, images, music, merchandise/groceries, fashion/space, and 3D. In this process, not only "drawing" but also using "pictures" to design information are also regarded as illustrations, so the course has also been developed. With a single picture as the core, the school has developed the ability to design and express differently in different media.

The school is also committed to becoming a creator of painting centered skills and learning different expressions, such as graphic design and visual expression.

Cross technology design

In this course, the aim is to solve various social problems by proposing new ideas and using the design power combined with technology. The advantage lies in being able to think of a design that can be operated as an enterprise in cooperation with the company, rather than just production and verification. At the same time, team learning and thinking are also very important.

product design

In this course, experts specializing in product design (i.e. "things") will be trained. In product design, it is important not only to design beautiful shapes, but also to design ease of use, user feelings and what kind of life people will lead.

By combining this consideration with creativity, the goal of the school is to become a professional who can create new products and bring them to the world.

space design

Space design is an important genre, which can not only create things and spaces, but also make people connect with each other, create regions, and discover new designs and make contributions to them. As a course for this purpose, students will learn three areas: space (interior/display), vision (graphics/photos) and social interaction (design for solving social problems), and gain comprehensive advantages useful to society.

clothing design

In this course, students will learn fashion and jewelry, design that creates new values closest to people, and social design that connects people with society. The school will train people who create new meanings in fashion for the sake of "sustainability". Its purpose is to make the society and environment sustainable, rather than simply designing clothes. By studying fashion, vision (graphics) and social design in a complex way.

environmental design

In this course, students will first learn three areas, namely architecture, interior and landscape. In this process, the school will accumulate research and thought experiments needed for design, and cultivate the ability to connect things and widely apply them.

This is the unique function of this course that other universities do not have. Through comprehensive study, students will acquire a wide range of responsiveness, and will spend four years exploring their career paths and abilities. Finally, students will choose their own path from seven professional fields, such as architecture, housing, urban development, interior decoration, furniture, landscape and garden, and connect with society.

Film production

Studied abroad in film and television production , will learn the "production", "direction" and "technology" in the film, and obtain the basic technology and ideas in each field from the basic knowledge. You can set up a shooting environment in the studio, as well as cameras, lighting and recording equipment. This not only involves making things, but also can show works to the world by considering modern transmission methods.

Film performance

Try to become an actor with rich sensibility and extensive performance skills by learning a variety of expressions centered on "performance" in movies. Through cooperation with the film production course, we will develop practical skills and expression skills, as well as communication skills.

Performer/Director

Become an actor, voice actor and director by learning all the basic "acting". We will invite domestic and foreign directors, actors and active voice actors, as well as the training combined with the unique performance skills of this course, to improve everyone's potential. Students who aim to become actors will learn traditional performing arts, dance, voice, etc., and gain the ability to play an active role in various performing arts and visual arts such as drama and musicals.

Stage design

In this course, you will learn the whole stage design without having to separate each design and explore the way you want to go. As a staff member, I participated in performances of plays, musicals and dances held in the campus theater, created a stage in the performance and director courses, and honed my professional skills.

Creative Writing

From the first year, students will actually learn vocabulary, focusing on the three principles of reading (reading), writing (creation/writing) and knitting (editing).

Art Research and Cultural Production

In this course, not only art, but also music, film, drama, art festivals and other arts of all types will be made the most of, and will teach you how to spread them to people. Planning and managing exhibitions and activities, studying and evaluating artistic effects in the real world, and promoting art in the educational environment and society require a place and technology that links art with people.

Art and culture

Nowadays, art and society are becoming diversified, and information has become so diversified and so large that a sense of division and obstruction has emerged. In this field, the school will train researchers and art practitioners who can freely interact with other disciplines and arts, obtain a "new culture" suitable for the current era, and interact with society from a composite and comprehensive perspective. I will produce it.

Arts and Crafts

In this field, the school aims to cultivate the most cutting-edge artists in the world, or artists who can play a professional role in their respective fields. The school will improve the necessary quality for this purpose. In addition to improving technology and professional knowledge, we will also develop the ability to view our work and status objectively, and the ability to express our work orally and connect it with the society.

Design field

Design has always been the driving force behind society. With the great changes of the world situation and science and technology, the role of design is becoming more and more important. In this field, the school is training design and visual creation practitioners, with a view to showing the world in the next five to ten years.

Environmental design field

In environmental design, the awareness of the natural environment and the ideas and concepts of future urban development and lifestyle are very important. In this field, when the school conducts practical research and production guidance in the three fields of architecture, interior design and garden/landscape design, the school provides opportunities to touch knowledge and ideas in many fields, and has professional insights and comprehensiveness. Our goal is to develop human resources in an all-round way.

Cultural innovation

In this field, the school aims to support the maturity of local culture and community through human resources development and product development, rather than training artists. If you want to use your art and design power to contribute to social reform, please consider enrolling.
