Meet the Parents part 2

Parents of students have a lot to say about the workshop. In this APWnetwork video, Fatima Merpouya speaks about her son Bahador. She shares her excitement about the progress that she witnessed in Bahador's animal and room/perspective drawing when he was a student with the Animation Portfolio Workshop. Bahador went on to study at Seneca Animation Arts Centre and presently works in the animation industry in Toronto, Canada In addition to his work as a Drawing for Animation instructor with the Animation Portfolio Workshop, Bahador's professional visual effects resume includes work on the feature film "The Incredible Hulk".

Drawing at the Museum

On a recent Animation Portfolio Workshop class session held in the Royal Ontario Museum, APW instructors Myke Bakich and Bahador Merpouya demonstrate drawing exercises and ideas to our students.
These visits have long been a staple of the APW and have benefited from the newly designed spaces and more display areas in the newly renovated and redesigned ROM.
