There were 9 educators representing 12 schools.

Areas covered included sponsor and school contacts for the Student Animation Festival.

Deadlines for the festival.

Date of the Judging Breakfast - Saturday Sept. 20th.

Portfolio review area.

And lots of other details of the festival.

The event ended up with peer review of teacher`s film projects in progress. The images below are from Kathy Baun`s animation in progress. Also shown at the event and critiqued was a film by Aubry Mintz and the 2006 ASIFA-Hollywood Comic Con Animation Jam (which now has sound and foley and is currently at the composer)
