Adobe Youth Voices- Body & Soul
Posted by Ben in Consultation, Design, Graphics, Illustration, WorkshopsSo Thursday night i presented the introduction to the Adobe Youth Voices project to the wonderfull young people at the Body & Soul Charaty. They where very warm and welcoming to what i had to say, even though i was a bumbling mess!
I told them about a project starting in the new year, where i will be teaching participants how to draw, how to create interesting characters and how to use Adobe photoshop as an aid to make your characters look amazing and finished to a professional standard.


These are some of the slides of my work i showed to inspire the young people into signing up for the project. There was lots of interest and it seemed many young people wanted to learn how to draw characters and have some fun doing it.
After i presented the project we all took part in a workshop making masks for the christmas ball at Body&Soul. We where making the masks to be warn by the young people for there masquerade ball. It was great fun to take part in some crafts with the young people, it was all rather crazy and i regressed to my 8 year old state of mind. So i made a Optimus Prime mask and a Batman mask with fire for hair!!! This promply got taken a shine to by a girl there. She then covered it all in purple glitter!!! From Batman to BatQueen it was amazing.
A great experance and a successfull night, looking forward to getting started in the new year.
