Spend 2 jam-packed, fun-filled days learning to plan, draft, write, draw, edit and "publish" a comic or illustrated short story.
This session is for ages 12 and up (we have another one for younger kids)
By the end of the 2 day session your child will have developed a full story board/outline, characters, story ideas, some comic strips and possibly more depending on how motivated they are.
We'll explore many mediums - including digital, traditional and a variety of art tools.
We'll focus on planning, drawing techniques, and participate in a variety of activities, games and more that help spark and expand the creative process. This is not a program for copying or drawing existing characters etc. We will help our attendees create their own unique characters based off of things they enjoy about others. Inspiration - not imitation is the goal!
At the end of day 2 we plan to have a gallery of our work so that parents and other supporters can come view them. We'll host the gallery from 3 to 4pm on the second day.
