Project description

Since 2015, the creative and cultural label Kanarimagik has been producing content to raise awareness, inform and transmit knowledge, using drawings, comics, animated videos and other fun media, in paper or digital format, for young people (boys and girls aged 5 to 18), their families and educational mediators (parents, teachers, etc.).

“Digitoonz Afrika” has the singular ambition of making Senegalese comics known in Africa and in the world via a “Webtoon” platform entirely dedicated to the promotion of these digital works. This project will also enable a hundred or so enthusiasts and professionals from the sector to make themselves known and benefit from comprehensive training on the creation and production of comics (scriptwriting, storyboard development, production of sets and characters, creating vignettes, etc.).
