Grading
I will be critiquing students multiple times throughout the course of the short film creation, and students will come out with a portfolio of work for this project.

Class Experience

US Grade 9 - 12
Advanced Level
In this 1:1 class, students will be guided through the ins and outs of making their own short film. 

We will begin with writing a story that will be designed to last approximately 30 seconds. Then, we will begin the concept design, storyboarding, character design, environment design, and everything else required to be ready to animate. 

After the concept design, writing, and storyboarding are done, we will animate the short film from start to finish! Students may use their own software, and may be expected to complete parts of the project outside of class. 

I will be there for guidance and help along the way! I will encourage students to be creative and help them understand aspects of good storytelling, and good animation. We will have critiques in class along the way in order to have a professional looking project to the best of the student's ability!

This 1:1 format is especially helpful for students who may need more guidance, or who are hoping to attend a magnet school, or go to college for animation.

Learning Goals

Learners will use their expertise in animation in order to create a cohesive and meaningful animation that tells a story from start to finish
Learners will experience the full pipeline of animation from writing an idea, to concept design, to storyboarding, to animation and finalization
