Animated Young Minds: A Celebration of Black Artistry
This course takes place in 4 sessions over a 2 day period, and can be accessed as a full package of 4 or a la carte. Each session will highlight a unique Black creator’s perspective in the animation and film industries while empowering young artists in the Denver community to learn new skills. Students will engage in tutorials created by Mile High Animation and presented by visual talents Bruce W. Smith, Shawn Martinbrough, Sonya Carey & Coran Kizer Stone. Using animation tools like Procreate, students will design a showcase piece following directives on the auditorium screen. Following the lesson, there will be interactive panels with presenters that will offer real time critique of each piece.
