VALT Character Design, 2020
In 2018 I returned to co-teaching Juxtaposition Art’s Visual
Arts Literacy Training class. When the pandemic began in
2020, we needed to transition entirely to virtual learning and
adjust our curriculum and teaching to match that. With this
change, we added a new assignment where I walked VALT
students through the basics of character design. I recorded
and edited a series of four videos on character design where
I drew a character for the class named Sakeena. Students
would watch the videos and when we came together for class
we would work on our drawings and give feedback.
