Black Dog Films and The Kusp bring the second in a series of events for upcoming filmmakers to FOMO, this time exploring storytelling within animation.
Visionary illustrators, animators, and stop-motion artists Alice Bloomfield, Isabel Garrett and Jack Zhang will join us to share their unique approaches to storytelling, breaking down real-world projects and showing how their respective styles bridge art and film. The event will take place in two parts: a creative panel discussion, culminating in a workshop style session for panelists to feedback on some of the attendees ideas and work.
The event will offer…
- Creative walkthroughs of the panelists’ most celebrated works
- Practical insights on concept development, storyboarding, and style
- Candid discussion around navigating the animation and commercial work
- A Q&A and feedback for participants’ own ideas or work
If you’d like to submit your work for the chance to receive live feedback from the panelists during the event, please send your name, the title of your project, and a link to your project to [email protected].uk . We will be selecting three pieces to share constructive feedback on on the night.
