"The Building Blocks of Comic Creation"
This summer's program is an interactive storytelling show in which the audience helps me design a silly, zany comic strip. We will learn about the different ingredients that make up a comic or cartoon, and how those pieces come together! The program will address ideas like simple illustration techniques, communicating through art, and using sequential images to tell a story that is easy to understand.
The Providence Children's Film Festival summer program is much more than watching movies. After viewing an international short film, teen participants will learn about the language of film and participate in creating their own film project that shares their voices about how they might "build a better world". We hope to combine each participating library's teen film project into a collective film that showcases the many better world building ideas of youth across Rhode Island.
