Comic-Con: Making it Scary!

Children’s author and illustrator Stan Yan will read one of his books and use hands-on gameplay to demonstrate how shapes, letters, numbers, and even words can be used to create scary characters. For ages 6-12. Registration required. This workshop includes an interactive drawing demo. Stan Yan will take a non-scary suggestion from the participants, to show how staging, lighting, backgrounds, gestures, and expressions are all tools an artist can use to make a harmless scene scary! He will also show how to use simple geometrical shapes to design characters that are simpler to draw again and again for a story.
