Winter Week 9 - Wed. March 12 - Brandon Scott, Justin Time, and yet another MILESTONE due

Week 9 - March 12

Lecture: The Animation Industry: Self-Promotion -  Brandon Scott (creator of Justin Time)

Workshop: General Portfolio Review - Brandon Scott

We've got a really interesting lecture and workshop this week, from one of our very own Sheridan BAA alumni, who has done very well in the Animation business since graduating in 2007.

Award-winning animator Brandon Scott is probably best known as the creator, developer and art director  of the Emmy-nominated animated TV series Justin Time. But he has many other credits to his name, including work for Guru Studios, and JibJab Media, as well as writing and illustrating several books.

Brandon is very generously spending the afternoon at Sheridan BA Animation to give you some background on what it takes to promote yourself in the animation industry, using his experience at developing and pitching his own TV Series as raw material. (S235, 11 am)

And from 2 to 4 pm he'll be in Lab A150 to review your portfolio and give you some sage advice. Bring your portfolio work on memory-stick and paper formats for an open discussion.
