Do you want to learn how to make great characters for animation, comics, picture books, games and fantasy? In Character Creation you will learn everything you need to know to bring the characters you imagine to life. We will use expression, color, shape, movement and design and discuss making costumes and clothing that work. Students will learn the standards used by animators and artists to create several characters in class. This will be a fun experience for those that like to draw and students will also get to build a model of one of their characters. A personal sketchbook is recommended.

  • Reduced tuition on youth classes requires a family membership. For a full-day program, a morning class may be combined with an afternoon class. Supervised "bridge" care is available for these students, between 12-1PM, for an additional $40 per week.
