Ringling College Meets Carl Sagan at “The Pale Blue Dot”

Sophomore level animation students at Ringling College of Art and Design (class of 2020) team up to “pay tribute to Carl Sagan and spread a message of positivity in such divisive times.”

From Ring College: “Over the course of six weeks, the 37 students worked together across three sections to break down the intent of the script, develop and design each concept, and then implement it through animation.

“In the end, the film was a great learning experience to explore the collaborative nature of animation. The result is something that the entire class of 2020 built together.”
