This 4-day week (Monday – Thursday) we’ll look at how to create comics and cartoons. Creating comics and graphic novel starts with a story idea or character that we turn into drawings and storyboards. We’ll be looking at heroes and bad guys, inking and coloring, action and drama, building suspense, using perspective to show dynamic pictures and much more. We’ll be drawing out ideas, inking them, coloring them and having a blast doing so. Bring your ideas and we’ll create some amazing artwork that will astound your friends and family!

• This camp is intended for 9-14 years old.

Camp day structure:

Art Camp for middle school and highschool kids, at Bay Area Art School, begins at 10:00 AM, with guided instruction or a prompt.  We take short breaks every 50 to 60 minutes to allow kids to stretch and reset. Lunch takes place from 12:00 to 12:30 PM, followed by a supervised walking field trip around Sharp Park and sometimes along the waterfront. Depending on the group size, we may explore the beach, though we do not allow anyone to get wet or touch the water. Art activities resume around 1:00 PM, with another break to move around around 2:00 PM. In the afternoon, we wind down with a film at 2:30-3:00 PM, depending on the day’s activities, before pick-up at 4:00 PM.
