Description

Discover how to create classic pixel art for video games in the style of Super Mario, Zelda and Terraria. Make characters, terrain, and backgrounds with effective lines, shading and colouring. Design buildings, animals, tools and more. Animate your pixel art and see it in a working game where potions bubble, grass and trees sway, figures walk, run and fly. Camp led by Jim Smith of Progressive Music & Arts with a summer Program Assistant. Bring a USB stick to take your creations home. Ages 8-12.
