Assistant Professor Kate Renner teaches Drawing, Animation, and 3D modeling courses for students who want to build a career in the animation industry. She creates a curriculum that both supports and challenges emerging artists as they expand their creative processes, while ensuring that they graduate with the
software fluencies necessary to be competitive in the job market. Her current writing and research includes a review of the recent Bloomsbury publication Coraline: a Closer Look at Studio LAIKA’s StopMotion Witchcraft for the Society of Animation Studies. Outside of the classroom, she is the Director of the Vermont Animation Festival, and loves to ski and bike in the hills of the Northeast Kingdom.
