Project Title: Animated Cleveland (Animated CLE)
\nProject Description:<\/p>\n
Animated Cleveland is an Academic Workplace Development and Skill-Up Training program that will train and provide job opportunities for students from low-income, underserved communities in Northeast Ohio in the growing industry of 2D animation. <\/p>\n
Animation is one of the fastest growing segments of the global digital technology industry, and 2D animation is one of the major forms of animation. It is widely used in media (broadcasting, publishing, television, the internet); entertainment (visual effects); marketing and advertising; corporate presentations; educational materials, video games; and a variety of other fields. <\/p>\n
With the global and local growth in the digital technology industries, there is a growing need for workers trained in animation. In Cleveland, Ohio, certified animators can work in education and medical technology (where Cleveland has significant workforce needs) and in entertainment. <\/p>\n
Currently, no workforce development program for animation exists in Cleveland, Ohio, which places students from Cleveland\u2019s underserved communities at a disadvantage in terms of gaining access to the necessary training and certification in animation.<\/p>\n
Cleveland Institute of Art (CIA), an accredited, independent college of art and design, offers an animation program for its students. However, due to CIA\u2019s selective admissions process and tuition requirements, it is unlikely that the students who will comprise Animated CLE\u2019s trainee cohorts would have the opportunity to attend CIA.<\/p>\n
Animated CLE aims to increase Cleveland\u2019s tech workforce by training students from disadvantaged communities, who possess sufficient technical and artistic skills, in 2D animation tools and becoming a key partner in responding to the impending employment gap in trained animators in Northeast Ohio. <\/p>\n
Through Animated CLE, Little Lumpy Center for Educational Initiative\u2019s long-term goals are to provide employment for artists in a hybrid industry that provides good-paying careers, and to provide economic self-sufficiency and increased potential to earn generational wealth for economically disadvantaged communities.\n<\/p>\n
