Concept Development Workshop
Have you ever had an idea for a great cartoon? Come to this workshop and learn
how to get the idea out of your head and down on paper. Once on paper your concept
is just a pencil stroke away from becoming a short film. The two-hour workshop will
allow participants to explore the relation between story and character development.
Through enjoyable and creative exercises (principles of writing, story design and
cinematography) they will develop their own story learning how to translate an idea
into an initial storyboard?s first draft.
