Drawings, Books and Movies: The Short Films and Large Whimsies of William Joyce

  • Roxie Theater 3117 16th Street San Francisco, CA, 94103 United States (map)

Artist William Joyce has worn many hats throughout a creative career that has included authoring and illustrating 50 bestselling children’s books, pioneering in digital animation, and founding an Academy Award®-winning studio. In this workshop, Bill will present a few SFFILM favorites, including the Oscar®-winning The Fantastic Flying Books of Morris Lessmore (2011). He will also screen his latest creation, Mr. Spam Gets a New Hat (Festival 2022), offering a peek behind the curtain as he explains how he crafted this silent Technicolor wonder. Bill will finish with a live drawing activity featuring some crowd favorites such as Rolie Polie Olie (1998-2004), as well as key characters from the Disney film, Meet the Robinsons (2007). Be sure to bring paper and pencils with you to draw along. Recommended for ages 7 and up.
