My first year teaching at Hunter’s Department of Film and Media Studies is nearing an end, just a couple finals next week and then grading. As with any new position, it’s been a great deal of work and I’ve done a lot of curriculum planning. <\/p>\n

One of the great pleasures is the quality of work from many of the students. The highlight has been a beautiful animation by Natalya Serebrennikova titled “Cicada”<\/a>. The animation was executed in my Intro to 2D Animation course (it was the first time I taught the course, but have wanted to do so for sometime). Fortunately Natalya walked in with a story and art work in mind that she developed in Tim Portlock’s Graphic Novel class. With a great story and the aesthetic developed, it was really a matter of conquering the technical skills of animation and a bit of guidance. <\/p>\n

I consider Natalya’s work an excellent example of various courses and faculty working together to help a student realize her vision.<\/p>\n

Natalya was just awarded a National Board of Review Student Grant<\/a>! Hopefully, I’ll have a few more great projects this semester.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
