What education and training is required to become a manga artist?

Collage is not really required to become a manga artist as long as you know how to draw and you are good with the coloring, and shading, and word bubbles, but I wold not recommened this being a set career this should be something that you do in your spare time while working another job because if becoming a manga artist doesn't work out then it is best to have something to fall back on (:

What material does a professional mangaka use?

Hm...while I'm not quite an expert, I do know that you need a lot of different types of pens to ink with(fine, bold, etc.) ; you also need a lot of screentone. Sometimes they have papers with the manga guidelines already on them, so that could be useful. You'll need lots of ink: black, white, and colored(for color pages, of course). A computer can also be very useful when it has the right programs installed in it, not to mention you can go on the internet for research. I also think it would be helpful if you carried a notebook or notepad around with you in case you came up with an idea or a quote or a plot or something...that's everything I can think of on the spot. I'll update if I think of more.

What company does Masashi Kishimoto work for?

Masashi Kishimoto

Masashi Kishimoto is the mangaka (comic artist) for the famous manga series Naruto. He was born November 8, 1974 in the home of Okayama, Japan. Masashi Kishimoto has a brother named Seishi Kishimoto, who created his own manga series 666 Satan. Masashi is indeed very creative and he once even created his own wrestlers, originated with the ability to acess the power of food. His favorite Naruto character is Sasuke.

In college, he created his pre-manga series before Naruto which he called Karakuri, which told about a boy's usual crazy adventures, walking home from school. He submitted this to Shonen Jump and from it, earned the Hop Step Award.

In the manga, Masashi mentions stories of his life titling "Masashi Kishimoto's History". Of course, since he was so humorous, he was even brave enough to add some humilating partions of his life.

As a child, Masashi Kishimoto loved Dragonball up to the Frieza Saga and it is a mystery why he stopped liking it. He also liked the TV series Doraemon, including all of his friends. There was even Mobile Suit Gundam. On the Famicon (latest game system) he craved the popular game Dragon Quest. Masashi's likes also were composed of Kinikuman, The Fist of the North Star, Saint Seya, and Dr. Slump.

In the eleventh grade, he created a 31 page manga, and was expecting his brother to love it, only to hear that it stunk. He felt strange about that answer, expecting a different answer from his father, only to get the same one. He soon improved on his manga though through 'intensive training'. It was that reason he was able to create the popular Naruto manga series.

Answerhe is the creator of the NARUTO series and he made a new series called "NARUTO SHIPPUDEN." He is also the maker of Naruto games.

We'll all just have to sit back and wait for this!! :) And Kishi is fond of our Sakura. Though It's unknown of what he thinks of Hinata.

What are the awards that Masashi Kishimoto the creator of Naruto won?

The hop step award is an award given by the company/publisher shueisha for manga. As far as I know it's for ammateurs (basically people giving in one shots (a 50 page manga chapter that isn't exactly likely to become a series)) but there's a good chance you could be serialized if you won it.

Masashi Kishimoto specifically, won it for a one shot called "Karakuri" which you can read if you search hard enough on the internet.

Many manga artists in shonen jump, etc have won it and that is why they're serialized e.g. the manga-ka who created "Yu Yu Hakusho" and "Hunter x Hunter" (who's name has escaped my mind)

How much does a mangaka get paid?

A Mangaka doesn't get paid salary. They get paid for whatever they sold.

The average Mangaka works roughly 8-10 hours a day. Generally they have to give in 20-40 pages of manga a month so it's one compleated page every day (not including the time it takes to write the story). If the editor doesn't like it the Mangaka has to re-do it. Also the extra art like cover art or graphic books.

You don't get an hourly rate but a contract based partially on sales, the average contract is usually for a beginner 500$ per 20 pg's.

Assuming it takes 5 hours per page about 5$ per hour.

If the Managaka's just starting then they're looking at self publishing which is Doujinshi. In that case they make what they sell after paying their own printing fee.

They have to then calculate their costs; time to make the comic, materials used, paying assistances, ect. ect. ect.

In the end the profit is compleatly dependent on the Mangaka.
