Story & Previs Taster on 8 August at 5pm

Join us on Monday 8th August at 5pm at Escape Studios for a free taster in Storyboarding and Previsualisation.  Come and see what it is like learning the art and craft of visual storytelling at Escape Studios.

This free online taster offers a hands-on introduction to professional storyboarding techniques, techniques which are currently in demand as the animation industry continues to expand.

In this online taster, taught by Escape Studios' tutor Iliana Franklin, you will learn to create a simple storyboard, and edit the images into a digital animatic with music and sound design.

Storyboarding
Storyboarding remains an area of skills shortage in the UK, as the industry continues to expand. Many studios, such as Disney, have their development and pre-production units here in London, but outsource the actual animation overseas. Storyboard artists work closely with the director to tell the story in a fun imaginative way, taking the script and finding ways to bring the words to life.

Software
You will need to have a version of Maya and Photoshop installed on your machine if you would like to follow along live with this taster. Assets will be sent out to all guests in advance*
