Join CCA Animation, Game Arts, & Friends to celebrate our community and welcome the Fall semester! Arrive early for snacks and stay for a special performance by local animation artist Jeremy Rourke. Come meet your next collaborator!

Everyone from the CCA community is welcome.

Our mixers all include a musical feature from our Acting for Animation & Writing for Animation professor and current Program Lead, Jeremy Rourke. Jeremy is a stop motion animator, performer and educator based in San Francisco, CA. After stitching together his first animated second (12 frames) in 2009, this meticulous, handmade, beautiful, and uncanny medium became home. He creates multimedia performances where, guitar in hand, he sings his projected animations into being. His commissioned work with documentary filmmakers has screened at festivals including Sundance and Frameline, and has been nominated for an Academy Award. As an educator, he has shared his knowledge and enthusiasm for the art of animation at UC Davis, Saint Mary’s College, SF State, Shapeshifters Cinema, CASA (children’s after school arts) and California College of the Arts.
