IMPORTANT NOTE:
These workshops are designed to be progressive, meaning they will build on each other and incrementally increase in difficulty. Day 1 will start with beginner-friendly lessons to hone your foundation and technique and Day 2 will end with advanced concepts to test the limits of your creative skills and application. If you are new to animation, we still strongly encourage you to take all workshops. They may be challenging, but will give you a roadmap for how you can progress your dance over time with practice and consistency and give you a more well rounded perspective of animation as a style. Getting all these specialists and guest teachers together in Chicago is a rare opportunity so take advantage while you have the chance!
