As part of our ongoing SVA Destinations program, last week the SVA faculty took 16 students to Los Angeles soak up experiences and talk to alumni in their respective fields. The goal of the program is to introduce students to top visual artists in the film and animation industry who share valuable insights about their creative and technical approaches to visual storytelling and about how they achieved their success in their careers.

The week started off with a visit to The American Society of Cinematographer's clubhouse, where students met and mingled with photography directors George Spiro Dibie, Chuck Minsky, Donald A Morgan, James L Carter, Lisa Wiegand and David Perkal. Each artist shared their creative process toward creating a visual palette to a script and answered questions from the students.
