Idea projektu

“A cartoon of two or three lines in pencil can tell more than a ten-page article.”
Cartoon and comic art are a different form of art, it’s a creation. Many developed countries in the world have successfully build a strong entertainment market and contributed in economic growth. With the increasing popularity of cartoon and comic culture over the world due to the “Superhero age” of movies. People, specially students have started taking an interest in making their own comics, whether it is sometimes as minor bit strips or on a professional level. We can also have our own fairy tales, folk stories which can be visualized and it is suitable with our own context. In Bangladesh, cartoon is not considered as a rich art form & cartoonists are not given the proper recognition, as they should be given. As a result, instead of having some very talented cartoonists, Bangladesh is falling behind in many ways regarding this art form. One of the reasons, is that, people of Bangladesh do not know about the worth of this art form. But, culturally, politically & socially some cartoons played huge role in the history of Bangladesh. So, a academy for teaching cartoons, letting people know about cartoons & an institution for cartoon studies is needed in Bangladesh.
