Join Anna for a fun, informative, practical discussion of All Things Demo so you can keep "taking your voice forward !"
Anna's focus will be on the different kinds of demos with an emphasis on Commercial and Animation Demos:
- What Makes a Great Demo?
- How do you know what types of reads to put on demos.
- What are the things NOT to put on a demo?
- Do all demos need to be 'professionally" done?
- How many do I need?
- Where do I get material for my demo?
Anna will give you specific examples of where to find original material for your demos as well as how to create original characters for your animation demos.
The class will include listening to great demos and pointing out what makes them work.
There will be a Q&A after the presentation.
PLEASE NOTE: this a seminar and Q&A. No reads will be taking place.
