Cadence 2023 – Animated Poetry Workshop with Neely Goniodsky [Virtual + In-Person]
The introductory, generative, and hands-on workshop is recommended for adults, youth ages 14+, and ages 10+ with adult assistance. This workshop will also be presented virtually with live captions. Virtual participants will be sent a workshop kit in advance of the workshop and can follow along with the instructor, and get live assistance from the instructor and other NWFF staff.
WHAT TO EXPECT:
The workshop begins with a short storyboarding exercise, where each participant will be given a few lines from a poem by a local poet and learn how to translate words into visual compositions and motion design.
After a demonstration of the process, participants will dive straight into animating and have an opportunity to share their works-in-progress with the class. Time will remain for feedback and suggestions from the instructor, as well as additional tricks and techniques, shown in real-time.
Finished works will be uploaded to a shared online folder, so that they can be assembled into a single poetry film which will be shown during Cadence Video Poetry Festival 2023.
ONSITE WORKSHOP KITS WILL INCLUDE:
Animation Station – Cardboard box that can fit your light and device. Virtual participants should source a cardboard box
Plasticine
RECOMMENDED MATERIALS:
A tablet or phone with Stop Motion Studio installed – NWFF will have some devices available for in-person participants who need it. Virtual participants must source their own device.
Small Light – Get creative and see what you can do with a reading lamp or a flashlight. The lit area should be bright, though everyone’s light won’t necessarily look the same.
COVID-19 VACCINATION POLICY
For all in-person attendants, we are requiring masks that cover both nose and mouth while in the building. Disposable masks are available at the door for those who need them. We are aware that Washington lifted the indoor mask requirement on 3/12/2022; this is NWFF’s own policy. We will also have hand sanitizer and additional cleaning supplies available to clean all used surfaces.
If you have any additional questions, please email NWFF Interim Executive Director Derek Edamura, [email protected].
