Storytelling Workshop & NEWS
Hey All,
The team of Andy and Carolyn London ( http://www.londonsquared.net/ ) will be visiting Pratt Thursday, December 8th at 7pm to do a storytelling workshop. They have a very different method of writing than I do, and I think it would be a useful thing to attend. They made "The Backbrace" which I think some of you saw at Ottawa. It won a prize.
If you're interested in checking out this workshop, please reply to this post. I'd like to gauge interest so I can figure out what room to put this in.
In other news, the show I pitched to Cartoon Network over two years ago and forgot about just got optioned a few minutes ago. Hooray! It doesn't mean I get a show, but it does mean they'll fund a storyboard. Cool.

Is it the Utica Cartoon?

Nope. It's the third show we've had optioned. I'll explain the process more in Animation II, but basically you pitch a show. Then you want a long time and revise your pitch several times. Eventually they "option" it if they like your pitch, which means they pay for a bible, story outline, and storyboard. If that goes good, they pay for a pilot. If that goes good, they pay for a show. We're still a long way off, but it's good news.

Is the workshop open to anyone? Or just current animation students? Because I'd love to attend - I plan on taking a storytelling class in the future anyway.

I think it will be open to everyone, but if it's packed, animation students and media arts students will get priority.
