Autistry Studios Newsletter – April 25, 2011

Posted By on April 25, 2011

In the news: The Autistry film group won 2nd prize at the EdRev Short Film Competition last weekend for the trailer for their new film – The Deadly Diamond.  You can view the trailer on YouTube. Filming on the The Deadly Diamond continued this weekend with the zombie shoot! Stay tuned for news of the premiere date.

We had a wonderful visit with Michael McManmon, the founder of the College Internship Program.  We gave him a tour of Autistry Studios and spent two hours discussing our programs, his programs, LD issues, ASD issues – and how we might work together.  It was great to talk with someone who gets it.  We are thinking of a Fall or Spring trip back east to their new Arts and Theater program. Here is a link to a posting about us at CIP. They did get Dan’s name wrong – it’s Dan Swearingen not Lawson!

Summer Plans: we will be continuing our scheduled workshops through the summer months.  We have openings in a few of the workshops so if you are interested in joining Autistry please contact us. We will open new workshops as our student body grows.

Our program has been going for nearly three years and we have learned a lot during this time. Over the next few weeks we will be sending out short articles about our experience – describing our program and laying out our vision for the future. We have big things planned!
