Meet the Directors

Aya Yamasaki and Jason Brown have been making animation together for over 15 years. They have worked as independent animators creating commercial animations for a wide variety of clients and personal films that have screened at film festivals all over the world.

Learn about Camp

Animation Day Camp: Animation focuses on 2D, hand-drawn animation. It covers the basics of what animation is and a variety of techniques for creating it. Over the course of a week, campers work on a number of animation exercises as well as a *short* cumulative project. In addition to practicing the fundamentals, there is time dedicated to experimentation and exploring other forms of animation.

Animation Day Intensive: Animation Intensive is a continuation of Animation, and those looking to join need to take the first week or be able to demonstrate a level of knowledge of basic animation concepts and techniques. The week-long camp continues practicing hand-drawn animation but also focuses on compiling and compositing frames, backgrounds and other elements.
