Portfolio Sessions
Anime Expo is once again proud to provide aspiring artists with a venue to gather, learn, and gain feedback on their artwork from industry professionals as it is important that artists have a friendly, encouraging environment with which to enjoy all aspects of anime. These Portfolio Review sessions are strictly to help provide feedback and guidance to the next generation of anime artists. These reviews are free of charge with no obligation from either side to move forward with a business relationship.
Guidelines:
- Each session must be completed within 15 minutes.
- You may bring a physical portfolio for review. If you are going to bring a digital portfolio, make sure your phone or tablet are fully charged and that your artwork is already downloaded to your device. Internet and power will not be provided onsite.
- Do NOT ask for autographs or photos.

Viz Originals
VIZ Originals is excited to return to Anime Expo and meet aspiring manga creators as part of the portfolio reviews! We have experienced editors who work directly with creators, both in the US, Japan, and more, to develop new and original manga-inspired stories. If you're a creator inspired by manga techniques and would like feedback and guidance on your work, we would love to see samples of your sequential art that highlight dynamic paneling, skillful black-and-white artwork and compelling storytelling.
