Cartooning
Back by popular demand! Cartooning is a wonderful means of telling a story or expressing humor in a visual art form. Basically, it is very much like telling a joke, only on paper. Technical emphasis will be on facial expressions and character development, overall visual layout and design, legible lettering, clean inking and presentation, depicting action, and sequential story telling.
Students will be encouraged to develop their own characters and stories to express their own humor and imagination in a form of comic strip, single panel, or comic book. It’s a great opportunity to get “goofy.” Students continuing from last session will have new projects and challenges. Some classic animated cartoons will be shown toward the tail end of classes not only for “earned” entertainment incentive, but to show students how stories are told via facial expressions, action, and sequence and to understand what makes them funny.

Ceramics

Creative writing: character lab
What do acting and writing have to do with one another? Quite a lot, as it turns out. In this twelve-week workshop, writers will use improv games and creative writing activities to develop a cast of unique characters and wrangle them into a short story. Each week, we'll focus on different aspects of character, including dialogue, quirks, motivation, and more. On the last day of our workshop, we'll share our masterpieces with family and friends.
This workshop uses Society of Young Inklings time-tested methodology, which blends theatrical techniques and games that address multiple learning styles to inspire and challenge writers based on their individual needs and skill level. Group instruction during each session deepens students' understanding of character development. During writing time, instructors circulate to individualize the learning process for each student.
