Animation Collaboration for a Cause
Animation Collaboration for a Cause is an annual part of the Red Stick International Animation Festival in which artists work closely with school-age children from around the state, helping them create animation about their experiences with various social issues. Clifford Cohen of AnimAction, a company that focuses on youth expression through animation, leads this activity each year. Contact the festival office at rsiaf@cct.lsu.edu or 225-389-7182 to learn how you and your students can participate in the 2010 Animation Collaboration.
