Chris Kennett: Explore The Zooniverse

Session Info:

Have you ever wanted to create your own magical animal?

Join author Nova Weetman and illustrator Chris Kennett, co-creators of the magical Zooniverse series, as they guide you through steps to create your very own animal mash-up creations called mashimals!

Zooniverse follows the story of Noah and his best friend Blue who like to design weird and wonderful mashimals – and then bring them to life with the help of a magical book.

Participants will learn how to create characters with personalities, and take them on their own adventures to see what mischief they can get up to. As well as get some insight behind the scenes on how the series came to life.

During the workshop, participants will be able to ask Nova and Chris questions about their work and experiences.

Topics Covered
* About the ‘Zooniverse”
* Designing characters
* Planning simple story beats * Create your own ‘Mashimal’
