Shadowing - Little Earth Native Youth Arts Collective - Heidi Haferman - 2.5 hours

This week was our last week to officially work in groups and to share our process with each other! Everyone seems to have amazing work so far and I’m so excited to see it all completed and installed! Our show opening will be on Friday (April 18th) from 6pm - 8pm in the common area in front of Aud. 150! We’d love it if you could all make it out!! :)

Residency - Children’s Residential Treatment Center - Carmen Elate - 4 hours

The students are still working on their stop-motions and some have even completed! I’ve gotten to see some amazing shorts so far, and I can’t wait to see them all put together!

I didn’t get to come in Wednesday because I was the students guest speaker for the Scholarship Luncheon this year, which was super fun!

Because of the snow, CRTC classes were cancelled on Thursday, so there was no Friday gathering to show the films. So, the students have until Monday to finish! So, excited to see the finish results!

I teach on my first lesson on Tuesday, so I’m getting all prepared for that as well! I’ll be presenting an Animation Collaboration project on the theme of safe space: the students will write a 3-4 lined poem (keeping in tune to the theme) and use an app called, FlipAClip, to digital animate to the poem! In the end, we’ll put the animations all together so it’s one giant poem with lots of voices, techniques, and styles! Here is a screenshot of the process from my example:


Total Hours: 8.5

Other than that, that’s it! Here’s a glimpse of my final character design project about a girl and her pet Dino :)
