Haiku Exhibition

HAIKU EXHIBITION

Congratulations for those "terrific" Haiku Illustrations. It seems that we have some brilliant future Illustrators in this High School!

 Illustration is, and will still be one of the most demanded Careers in the future, it might not be as well paid as a Software Developer, a Financial Data and Information Security Analyst or Biomedical Engineer, but probably far more creative. 

Illustrators are those who can visualize ideas and stories. They can work in diverse industries, including businesses where they work as part of a marketing or advertising team. With additional training in graphic design, they can also work as web designers or VFX (Visual Effects) artists.

FORGESEANDO

 "FORGESEANDO"

"Forgeseando" is a project directed by the Asturian Alfonso S. Suarez with the actors who gave their voices to Bart Simpson, SpongeBob and the protagonist of 'Family Guy'. The idea started as a small tribute by Spanish dubbing actors to the cartoonist Forges. The project ended up with more participation than expected, and it ended with 14 cartoons dubbed by these giants of acting in front of the microphone: Juan Perucho (Peter Griffin in 'Family Guy'), Sara Vivas (Bart Simpson), Alex Sandinós (SpongBob), Sandra Jara (Felicity in 'Arrow') and Alfonso Aldeguer (habitual voice of Nicolas Cage and Keneth Brannagh).
