JOURNEY

1. Intrigue
Question Gives Birth to The Quest, We will learn to ask questions.
Questions about our world and its dynamics, our relationship with it
and our purpose and responsibility towards our world as storytellers.

Follow Your Heart and It Will Lead You To the Universe. Each
participant will dive deep into the self and find the change they wish
to see in their world and share it with each other and the source of
their inspiration.

3. Explore
Story Inspires, Story Heals, Story Enlightens. Participants will explore
how to weave a story for a focus group around the change they desire.
Participants will explore and befriend the power of animation and its
ability to manifest their imagination.

4. Implement
Participants will carry out their plan and create an animated short of
30 seconds to 1 minute. From creating assets, to animation and editing
their shots with music will be a rich experience for each participant.
5. Discover
Learning Comes Through Experimentation and Failure. This
will be our grandest discovery. Each participant will learn and
discover as per their own unique paths.

6. Reflect
The most essential aspect of learning is to reflect what we have
learnt about ourselves through this intense creative (physical-
intellectual-emotional-social-spiritual) process.

7. Celebrate
Joy grows exponentially when we share it. Participants will share
their learning, journey and experience with their friends and family
and celebrate.
