Exhibiting artist Corrina Askin provides an informative and illustrated talk on her work and creative process as an illustrator and animation artist. Based in Belfast, Corrina trained at the Royal College of Art, London and has been commissioned by Channel 4, MTV, RTE and The Irish Film Board.

Over the last 10 years she has worked principally in creating work for children’s TV and media, including
the animated series, Joe and Jack (RTÉ) and Castle Farm (Milkshake). She currently has two series in pre-development with Brown Bag Films, Dublin and King Rollo, UK and has just illustrated five stories for the CBeebies Storytime App, (downloadable free from CBeebies website) Little Red Riding Hood, Cinderella, Alice in Wonderland, Nian and The Elephant and The Mouse.

In book illustration, Corrina has won awards from Bologna Children’s Book Fair, The Bisto Award for illustration and The Cle publishing award. She has also worked with Random House, O’Brien Press, as well as
several independents.

This is a wonderful opportunity for art students aged 16+ and creative practitioners to gain invaluable insight from Corrina on the creative media industries, how to cultivate and submit proposals and her own creative development.
