Wed Meeting Notes

We had a good meeting Wednesday at Columbia College. We planned our next sketchcrawl for Sat. July 21st at noon at the north entrance of the Field Museum. We’re also making it our next meeting as well. http://www.fieldmuseum.org/plan_visit/default.htm If it’s raining, we’ll go draw in the museum. Otherwise, we will draw outside.

Amada started collecting flipbooks that have been done so far. She shot 2 of them back to back on the lunchbox, and they looked great together! If any of you did flipbooks, or still want to do one, or do another one, you still have time. When they’re done, they can be dropped off at the animation floor at Columbia College- 4th floor - 1104 S. Wabash. You can drop them off with Kevin, the secretary in the animation office, or at the cage with a TA. Just tell them it is for Amada. Otherwise, you can bring it to the sketchcrawl.

Oh, someone said that the Art Institute has free evenings on Thursdays and Fridays from 5-9. (until August 31) http://www.artic.edu/aic/visitor_info/

At the meeting, we also talked about the screening Friday night, Animation at the Portage. There seemed to be lots of interest. We didn’t meet as a WIA group last night, but we did run into each other. It was a great turnout! It seemed like everyone in the Chicago animation community turned out to support it last night. Among the films shown was WIA member, Lisa Barcy’s film, Mermaid.

Hope to see you tonight at the sneak peak of Ratatouille! Otherwise, we’ll see you at the sketchcrawl!
