Fox Fridays
Upcoming Fox Fridays Workshops
Dec 8, 1 – 3:50pm • Bixby Print Shop
This workshop, taught by Kelli Anderson will consist of physical and digital components. The class will be held in person on Friday, and over Zoom on Saturday. We will cover the entire process of printing a short looping animation: from outputting frames, to automating a contact sheet, to choosing color separations, printing, and finally: stitching it all back together again. We will go over file setup (instruction will be led in Photoshop, but alternative tool ideas are welcome!) as well as the basic operation of the machine, changing between different color drums, and the accurate registration of multiple colors.
Instructor: Kelli Anderson

FAQ
Every Friday, one resource facility or tool space transforms into a classroom to encourage a new culture of play, experimentation, and cross-disciplinary making and dialogue across the Sam Fox and WashU campus.
Fox Fridays are about exploring new mediums, tools, and ideas, refining skills, and diving deep into alternative processes. It gives students opportunities to learn from different types of makers and different perspectives in an environment free of the stress and anxiety of studio production. It encourages the development of communities and collaborations which bridge traditional disciplines and establishes relationships outside of defined studio practices. Most of all, Fox Fridays is about celebrating the immense resources available at the Sam Fox School, sharing knowledge, and encouraging collaborative experimentation. So pick a workshop, sign up, and forge a gateway to new possibilities.
