We had these workshops in 2022 / 2023.

The storyboard workshop was helpful to see again techniques of storyboarding, camera angles, etc. and practise them, which will help me organise better the shots for my final animation film and hopefully future ones. Bianca is always pleasant to see and her organised and practical approach keeps the lectures dynamic, useful and engaging. Sue Tong approached the staging in another way emphasizing good composition guidelines and also showing great examples in films etc.

Her character design last term certainly adds to developing proper characters that can keep the stories interesting for the audience. With character design techniques from Robert Bradbook’s workshop on top of that, also with very good examples and systematic didatic approach, and Sue Tong’s approach to colour pallettes, I believe I have lovely tools to develop characters to be as good as they can be to support a story with appropriate strength for the films I want to do. Also the character performance and construction techniques from the performance workshops add to all that too.

Different approaches and many examples in storytelling techniques from Robert’s and the performance workshops will also help with character construction and telling lovely stories. I feel we are given many useful techniques and approaches, and if the need comes for them in any part of the development of films / characters they will help me improve my work.
