posted on by Eric Stimson
The Yoyogi Animation Academy, which has branches around Japan, will offer a special treat for aspiring animators and voice actors this month: special courses to experience animation and voice acting using the 2015 hit anime Mr. Osomatsu as a basis. The Voice Actor Talent Course lets students lend their voices to the six brothers, with professionals lending their advice on how to properly read the script. The Animator Course teaches students how to move the brothers instead, again with professionals teaching the basics. Students can keep their work as a memento. They will also receive this exclusive Mr. Osomatsu notepad.
