B12659: Fantasy World Building in Splash 2018 (Nov. 17 - 18, 2018)
Have you ever wanted to create your own world just like Westeros? Or maybe that's a bit too dark for you and you prefer Azeroth. Or maybe that's just got too many things going on and you'd prefer Earth, but with Hogwarts. Or maybe we're still too close to home and we should head to Tattooine. In this class we will be exploring what all of these worlds have in common and how we can build one from scratch. We will also design the blueprint of one in class.


B11560: Fantasy World-Building in Splash 2017 (Nov. 18 - 19, 2017)
Have you ever wanted to create your own world just like Middle Earth? Or maybe that's a bit too one sided for you and you prefer Azeroth. Or maybe that's just got too many things going on and you'd prefer Earth, but with Hogwarts. Or maybe we're still too close to home and we should head to Tattooine. In this class we will be exploring what all of these worlds have in common and how we can build one from scratch. We will also design the blueprint of one in class.


H10681: Fantasy World-Building in Splash 2016 (Nov. 19 - 20, 2016)
Have you ever wanted to create your own world just like Middle Earth? Or maybe that's a bit too one sided for you and you prefer Azeroth. Or maybe that's just got too many things going on and you'd prefer Alagaesia. I think we all know the best one is one we make ourself, so come do that with me! We will be exploring what a fantasy world consists of and requires, and creating the basis for one in class.
