We’re kicking off the roll out for the “Your Library. Read-Defined.” animation series for The Chattanooga Public Library / @chattlibrary! 

First up is the Intro for Poppy!

 Fun fact about the music for this series/project: We recorded the original score at The Studio, an industry-standard recording studio located on the second floor of the downtown library.

Huge shout out to the amazing musicians who brought it to life with me:

Matt Eslinger – Bass (@theskeletonkeyworkshop)

Ben Stephens – Keys (@bennerstephensmusic)

Gordon Inman – Clarinet (@chattanooga_clarinetist)

After working on this series for nearly a year, I’m thrilled to finally share these videos with everyone.
Stay tuned over the next few weeks! I’ll be dropping the rest of the series along with some fun Behind-the-Scenes (BTS) clips showing the process!

Hi everyone!

We had our first community workshop yesterday with free admission. It went great! My students were eager and learned some fundamental concepts.

They are all animators now! Please enjoy some photographs below!

Thank so much to Studio Ours for hosting it.

Also thank you to Arts Build for helping to make this all happen.

Thank you to the people that came out to learn. It feels good keeping tangible art forms alive!

We will have more classes soon. I have one coming up in October at the Chattery that will also be free! More on that soon….

Finally, we will be updating the official site and creating a new digital gallery space to share and showcase what’s happening in these workshops and the magic of people seeing their work come to life for the first time (note the smiles in the pictures).

I can’t wait til we get that live.

Thanks for reading!
