'The Animation Academy' is a hands-on introduction to cartooning, and 'Cover Story' showcases the Comic-Con International: San Diego convention program art from the past 50 years
The Comic-Con Museum’s blockbuster “Amazing Spiderman” exhibition swung out of Balboa Park last month, but the museum will reopen on Saturday with two new exhibits that will appeal to comic art fans of all ages.
“The Animation Academy — From Pencils to Pixels” is a hands-on exhibition that teaches visitors the history of animation, from hand-drawn cels to computer-generated imagery. And “Cover Story: Five Decades of Comic-Con” is an exhibition of souvenir programs from the Comic-Con International: San Diego convention since its founding in 1970.
“Animation Academy” features more than 20 interaction stations where visitors can experiment with creating their own stop-motion animated shorts, learn about story-boarding, and see the world’s largest three-dimensional zoetrope, which is a revolving visual device that creates the illusion that a strip of individual drawings are in motion.There are also selfie spots where visitors can pose with their favorite animated TV cartoon characters.
“Cover Story” will feature program covers designed by a who’s who of comic artists, including Jack Kirby, Will Eisner, Milton Caniff, Neal Adams, Frank Miller, Bill Sienkiwicz, Jim Lee, Alex RossDave McKean, Moebius, Steranko, Babs Tarr and Michael Cho. There will also be a special exhibit on artist Rick Geary and his creation of the Comic-Con toucan mascot.
