ABOUT THE WORKSHOP:
 In this workshop, students will learn how to use Hydra--an open-source visual coding environment--in order to generate and manipulate experimental video effects. No prior knowledge of coding is required. Basic knowledge of video editing is required (e.g. you've made a TikTok before).

☆ REQUIREMENTS: Access to computer, Google Chrome, Basic knowledge of video editing (importing, cutting, and arranging clips). Have DaVinci Resolve downloaded in advance!

☆ PROGRAMS USED: DaVinci Resolve

ABOUT THE TEACHING ARTIST:
Electronic R&B/pop music, modern dance, and Black futurism comprise Lambkin’s artistic vision: where the visceral meets the cerebral; where the natural enacts the synthetic. The musician, composer, choreographer, and director explores Blackness as the break that might rupture our attachments to Worlds, territories, and Man.
