Must have for any dollmaker
Dear fellow puppeteers, don't plan anything for the coming weekend, as the much-anticipated Unidia conference is taking place on those two days!
This is a must have for any puppeteer. It's still unusual, but those who have been to the first one have been able to appreciate this amazing event. A serious pumping up of knowledge awaits you, as well as novelties from the very, very best.
As always, we have compiled the most topical topics for dollmakers.
As the main idea of the Unidia Union is to popularise the art of puppetry in the world, the conference is fully in keeping with this. Develop yourself, grow as a professional, and help someone else grow - that's our motto.
The lectures are led by members of Unidia as well as guest speakers.
This is the second time that sculptor Alexander Spiridonov, founder of the SculptArt school of sculpture and anatomy, is taking part in the conference. There is always a waiting list for SculptArt courses. Today this is probably the best school of sculpture and anatomy in the world. Website of the school https://sculpt-art.com/
It is a great joy for us to have such a "closed" master as Virginia Ropars participating. This legendary master practically never gives interviews and is rather reluctant to get in touch, but she made an exception for us. A must-see, because you never know when you'll get the chance!
Natalia Voronina, silk_bird brand, has long and firmly won the love of viewers, with her exquisite works. It's probably not a fair comparison, but Natalia's birds are selling like hotcakes. Be sure to attend her lecture!
Olga Sidorova is a wonderful master who has agreed to give two lessons at once. She will talk about the technology of working with porcelain dolls, as well as the specifics of Italian Renaissance fashion. I suppose no one needs to explain the importance of such material!
Lisa Konon is a director and animator. She has done all our animations. We are incredibly lucky to have such a team member. Lisa will talk about the nuances of setting up an Instagram profile, and how to make it as attractive and work as possible.
So, the schedule:
