Save the Date for our Annual Events
While this is NOT an annual event, our 75th Anniversary Screening is a showcase of student works that have made an impact to our Animation Workshop throughout the last 75 years. Tickets may be purchased online to attend the event held at James Bridge's Theater.
Participating Lizards from past and present gather together for a weekend of animating! Friday evening is spent brainstorming the theme of an animated short film, while Saturday and Sunday are spent animating with friends and food. The final film is screened at a later date.
This is the Animation Workshop’s night during the week-long TFT Festival of New Creative Work. It is a culmination of all films finished in the current academic year.
Our Workshop has traditionally called this night of Animated films, "Prom" and is screened at James Bridge's Theater with a reception at Sound Stage 2 to follow.
