I said I'd like to contribute in some way to the Anchorage International Film Festival. They said "Why don't you lead a workshop on animation?" I thought of a dozen reasons to say "No", but I said yes instead. So you can be miserable because of the cold and dark this December 5 or you can brave the elements and learn a few tricks that should keep you busy until May.
Here's the condensed version:
"Animation: Different Approaches" featuring two filmmakers, Peter Dunlap-Shohl (dir., "Frozen Shorts", Animation Official Selection, Snowdance), and Callum Paterson (dir., "Bonefeather", Animation Official Selection, Family Films). With an introductory film "How To Animate" (dir., Jordan Wood, Animation Official Selection). A hands-on look at the simple tools of animation; concept ideas and sketches; and storyboard basics.

3:15 p.m. to 5 p.m.
I plan to lay out a rudimentary form of computer animation that anyone who has put together a computer slide show should be able to work with.
I've been corresponding with the co-leader of the workshop, Canadian Callum Paterson, and am looking forward to his presentation, which is based on stop-motion animation.
See you there. I'll be the guy learning from Callum.
