Animators at Disney, Pixar, Dreamworks, Marvel, Sony, and many other studios — as well as independent and amateur animators across the world — use Wacom products to increase efficiency and collaboration on their projects.
Comics & Manga
Wacom drawing tablets have been mainstays in the comics and manga industries across the world for many years.

Design
Graphic design professionals have relied on the Wacom Intuos Pro for years, but there’s much more to the design industry. Fashion design, industrial design, product design, and architectural design workflows all benefit from the seamless creativity and precise inputs possible in software from the Adobe Suite to CAD to 3D modeling software.
Drawing & Illustration
Wacom has been known for decades as the industry leader when it comes to digital drawing, illustration, and digital painting. Taking full advantage of software like Adobe Photoshop, Clip Studio Paint, Corel Draw, or Rebelle requires the pressure sensitivity and ergonomics of a Wacom drawing display or drawing tablet.
Education
In remote or hybrid classrooms, digital input technology is crucial to foster long-distance engagement. But Wacom drawing tablets can jumpstart creativity in any 21st-century classroom.
With Wacom tech, teachers can encourage their students to explore, experiment and express their creativity, while cultivating the critical-thinking and problem-solving skills they’ll rely on in their digital future.
Gaming & Game Design
Designing 2D characters sheets, 3D assets, laying out gameplay loops, animating sprites, and all other aspects of game art and game design get a massive level up with Wacom tech.
Photo Editing
Wacom drawing tablets and displays are an essential tool for any creative professional or hobbyist who wants to take their photo editing to the next level. With their natural pen feel and precision, Wacom devices greatly enhance the quality and efficiency of photo editing work, from cutting out detailed masks to using pressure sensitivity for precise dodging and burning.
Productivity
Research has shown that taking notes with a pen on paper aids memory — but these days, nearly everything is done digital. Bridge the gap with a Wacom device. They’re also excellent for adding visual flair to presentations in the workplace and collaborating digitally online in remote offices.
Video & Film Editing
Wacom drawing tablets and drawing displays are used in Hollywood and throughout the world for film and video editing, visual effects, virtual production, color correction, and much more.
