For over 20 years Imaginary Forces has been a leader in blending cutting edge design with evocative storytelling. Whether it is documentaries, commercials, or opening titles for film/tv, they all start with an idea, and it is through storyboarding that these ideas evolve into structured concepts. Creative Director Alan Williams will share a behind the scenes perspective from main titles such as South Park, Stranger Things, and Anne with an E – revealing design principles, the power of abstraction and composition, as well as innovative storytelling techniques that students will apply to their very own boarded title sequence.

This is an exposure-level workshop suitable for teens and college students; no prior experience in design is needed to participate.
