SUMMARY:Art of Tech Industry Series
DESCRIPTION:MAGIC’s Art of Tech series empowers\, elevates and inspires innovation within the growing digital technologies industry. The speaker series brings together a wide spectrum of executive level professionals in the areas of Computer Animation\, Gaming\, Visual Effects\, Motion Graphics\, Virtual and Augmented Reality. \nSpeaker’s Bio: \n \nSamir Patel is a Senior CG Animator that has been working in the animation industry for the past 24 years. His experience spans the video game\, commercial and film industries. Samir grew up in New Jersey surrounded by the lush Pine Barrens and a television that pumped out Transformers\, Tom and Jerry\, Looney Tunes and Saturday morning cartoons. As a kid\, Samir split his time between being outdoors riding his bike or playing street hockey and indoors watching cartoons\, movies and finishing classic video games such as Contra\, Zelda and Pitfall.\nIn the late 90s\, Samir began his animation career as an intern for Elan Communications\, a design company for the trade show industry. He then quickly worked his way in to the video game industry at MagicArts Studio and then at Midway Games\, where he was an animator on Freaky Flyers and Crank the Weasel. Honing his skills\, he graduated to Blur Studios where he went on to work on Mickey’s Twice Upon a Christmas and a variety of video game cinematics. Three years later\, he moved on to Rhythm and Hues where he worked on several films\, including Academy Award winning: The Golden Compass\, Happy Feet and Life of Pi. His experience led him to ILM to work on Cowboys and Aliens. He then detoured through Method Studios\, working on Marvel hits: Antman and Captain America Civil War. Currently\, Samir is a Senior Animator at MPC Studios in L.A. concentrating on advertising. After more than two decades in the animation industry\, Samir looks forward to what other adventures his journey will take him on. He hopes that he will have the opportunity to tell his own stories or\, to even someday\, teach. But in the meantime\, he enjoys his peaceful\, happy life with his wife\, Maggie\, in Los Angeles\, California. \nSamir Patel IMDB page. \nHow to attend this event:  \nYou can attend Samir Patel’s lecture on MAGIC’s Discord/Art of Tech Channel – discord.gg/NPpaj2gBZU and on MAGIC’s Twitch Channel – https://www.twitch.tv/magic_mdc

SUMMARY:MDC MAGIC/FAU Day
DESCRIPTION:Join Us on March 9th 2021 for MDC/FAU Day at MAGIC\nMiami Dade College (MDC) and Florida Atlantic University (FAU) signed an articulation agreement that gives MDC students graduating with an associates’ in Animation and Game Art and Game Development and Design a seamless transfer pathway to pursue a Bachelor of Arts (BA) Degree in Multimedia Studies with a concentration in Film\, Video\, and New Media (FVNM). \nStudents pursuing an AS degree at the Miami Animation & Gaming International Complex would matriculate at MDC for 4 semesters. Upon completion\, MDC graduates would seamlessly enroll at FAU to complete the remaining 5 semesters of the BA in FVNM. FAU will accept major-specific courses completed at MDC to count towards the Production and Contexts area of the FVNM major. This also includes a waiver of the SCMS requirement that students take 12 upper-division credits in the College of Arts & Sciences but outside of the School of Communication and Multimedia Studies. However\, students may still need to complete additional upper-division coursework to meet FAU’s minimum 45 credit minimum. \n \n\nJoin us for this virtual event on Discord @ MAGIC_MDC hosted by both institutions designed to inform and introduce you to this new opportunity for all MAGIC students. The best pathway for students looking to continue their studies in animation ang gaming.\n\nFor more information contact Ariana Fernandez at (305) 237-7851 or aferna15@mdc.edu \n\n

SUMMARY:2021 Pitch Practice Workshops with Drew Tolman
DESCRIPTION:Animation industry pro Drew Tolman will show you how to get your story pitch polished and ready for the 2021 Pitch Week at MAGIC. \nCome prepared with your pitch\, but be prepared to work hard to improve it. This workshop is unique and it has been created for MAGIC students determined to bring their story into the light. \nPitching skills will allow you to tell your story and be persuasive in a clear way that will hold your audience captive\, whether you’re pitching ideas\, products\, your company\, or yourself. Why\, then\, do most pitches fall flat? They fail to engage the audience emotionally and be utterly irresistible when answering the audience’s all-important question of “what’s in it for me?” \nWhat you need to do is structure and deliver your story in a very simple\, straightforward way that reels people in\, makes them care deeply about your topic\, and gets them craving to hear what you’re offering. This applies to any delivery method – when writing\, speaking one-on-one\, or presenting to a group. \nDrew Tolman\nAnimation Producer/Executive Drew Tolman has 20 years of experience making family blockbusters in both development and production for Fox\, Disney\, Universal and Warner Bros. She has helped build three animation studios and has managed nearly every department at one point or another. Currently\, Drew is Line Producing Disney Jr’s preschool show called T.O.T.S. \nIMDb Filmography \nLinkedin \nWhen\nPitch Practice workshops is every Monday from 4:30PM – 6:00PM EST starting on January 18th\, 2021 until April 7th\, 2021.
