Local author Eric Douglas will discuss the pros and cons of self-publishing, along with how to sustain a career as an independent author.
Additional workshops will focus on film production, 3D animation and public relations for independent creators, with the goal of equipping participants with the skills to create and promote professional-level content.
“In this digital age, anybody can do just about anything they want, from book layout to animation to film production, but not everyone is able to do it well,” said EDC Artist in Residence Danny Boyd. “So these workshops are showing you how to look professional while creating your own content.”
In addition to Douglas’s workshop, the spring schedule of Creators Program sessions also includes the following: The Creators Program launched in 2012 as a series of community and talks workshops focusing on skills and knowledge essential to creating for mass media and art. The EDC partners with WVSU Cultural Activities and the West Virginia Film Office on the series.
Space is limited for the events, and registration is required. To register, visit wvsuedc.org and click on “The Creators Program” tab.
The WVSU EDC is located at 1506 Kanawha Blvd. W. in Charleston.
