The Digital Illustration and Sequential Art (DISA) program at Guru Digital Arts College is designed to meet the growing need for qualified entry-level illustrators and sequential artists who demonstrate professional skills in drawing and an understanding of the figure; concepts and storytelling; the use of colour to convey feeling and mood; perspective and compositions; mastery of technique, both traditional and digital; content, marketability and presentation. 

In the DISA program each student develops a unique portfolio that demonstrates a personal style and high level professional skills. Graduates from this program enter the job market showcasing the skills of illustrators in advertising, publishing, digital publishing, comic books/graphic novels, concept artist/visual development in video games and film, editorial illustration and many other growing fields.

Led by Lee Nielsen and Josh Holinaty, both veterans of the ACAD Fine Arts program, students enjoy a learning experience unlike any other in Alberta.
