0:00.0	Hi, I'm Samantha Caudrill and I'd love to invite you to join me for my upcoming workshop,
0:06.0	Paper Stories, crafting 3D dioramas for illustration and children's books.
0:11.0	This is a class about building tiny worlds.
0:14.0	Imagine making a little theater stage out of paper and foam board and then filling it with cut out trees,
0:20.0	characters, skies, shadows, and then filling it with cut out trees, characters, skies, shadows,
0:22.5	and finally bringing it all to life with light and photography. Over two weeks, I'll walk you
0:28.6	through the whole process. You're going to learn how to sketch and design your scene, how to paint
0:33.7	textures and play with paper, how to cut, fold, and build your stage, how to
0:38.3	light your set like a little film studio, and finally, how to photograph it beautifully,
0:43.9	so it looks just as magical on screen or in print as it does in your hands.
0:48.9	Don't worry if you've never done anything like this before.
0:52.2	Everything is broken down step by step with videos, templates,
0:56.3	plenty of encouragement and lots of live interaction. By the end, you will have your very own
1:02.8	finished 3D diorama, a miniature theater for your story to live inside. And the best part?
1:08.7	We'll finish a little diorama party, where everyone can share
1:12.7	their creations, cheer each other on, and celebrate the joy of making something by hand. So if you
1:20.0	love storytelling, illustration, or just the sheer delight of scissors, glue, and paper,
1:26.1	come join me and let's build a tiny paper world together.
1:34.2	Hello, everybody. Welcome to Three Point Perspective, the podcast about illustration, how to do it,
1:41.7	how to make a living at it, and how to make an impact in the world with your art. I'm Jake Parker.
1:45.8	And I'm Lee White.
1:47.3	And today we are interviewing Jason Chin.
