Guest Speaker at FanFaire 2021

SMALL PAGE VS THE BIG SCREEN
You can spend your initial career focused on the static page, and then years later wind up moving to animation, or even directing your first full-length animated movie! What are the challenges in such a move, and if you could do it over again, what would you look out for? Come chat with illustrator turned director Scott Christian Sava and veteran triple-threat illustrator/cartoonist/animator and SVA educator Ray Alma as they go over their artistic journey.


Guests: Scott Christian Sava & Ray Alma

made it into the final cut.
