Camp FAQs

Doors will open at 8:50am, and pick up is 4:30pm. There is no before/after care.

For ease, please access Quickdraw Animation Society through the back blue doors.

If there are any issues with the pick up and drop off time, please inform Theresa ahead of the camp at education@quickdrawanimation.ca to see if we can make accommodations

Quickdraw provides everything a student needs to make an animated film come to life! The only things you need to bring are food (lunch and snack), a hat and a water bottle (re-sealable). Quickdraw has a microwave, a fridge, and a kettle for student use.

In the event a student wants to bring in something of their own to animate, just let us know and make sure to label any student belongings so we don't mix it up with our own equipment and supplies.

Students are encouraged to bring their own USB keys to transfer their files at the end of the week, otherwise we will collect them and upload them to a Dropbox shared folder and send the link out the week or so after camp finishes.
