Magic Storybook – Kevin Ramirez

Imagine making a colorful drawing, but instead of it sitting on a flat page, it exists in 3D space.

Blender with its powerful 2D drawing and animation tool called “Grease Pencil” lets you do just that. Making art with it feels like drawing in air, allowing you to create digital worlds with more freedom.

In this Magic Storybook course, you will learn everything you need to get started with Grease Pencil, and fully explore a hybrid 2.5D workflow. So you can move beyond the flat page into dimensional space.

Don’t worry if you’re not a drawing pro or are fairly new to 3D – this course is totally beginner-friendly. There’s over 10 hours of content, downloadable project files, and access to help anytime you need it.
