STUDENT TESTIMONIALS FROM 2022

4-H BIG RED SUMMER CAMP ANIMATION 1.0 - LINCOLN, NE

I enjoyed the way we were shown films and told to observe them, their lighting, their effects, to take inspiration and try what we like. We were shown things that we are not traditionally used to

 

I loved the environment and just getting to be creative. I was able to explore however I pleased and wasn't just sitting down doing nothing!

 

I like how much free time we had. Also how much animation we did in the times of class

 

I loved it and I'm no longer afraid of animation.

 

It was a great life experience.

ANIMATION 1.0,  7-13YRS - NORTH PLATTE, NE
