SCAD-Atlanta Animation Society (SAAS)

The Savannah College of Art and Design Atlanta Campus Animation Society (also known as the SCAD-Atlanta Animation Society or SAAS)is an organization that caters to the skill sets of animators, illustrators, storyboarders, and character designers.

History SAAS was founded Fall quarter of 2006 by Amanda Goodbread, an animation major, and faculty advised by Professor Tina O'Hailey. Meetings were held on a weekly basis.

Today Today meetings are held every two weeks and competitions every four weeks. They usually consist of letting members know what events and opportunities are going on in the animation community, live tutorials in animation software and techniques, one-on-one help sessions, watching movies/shorts, and the occasional light snacking.

Through out the quarter they go on an average of five trips. These range from animation festivals to gallery shows, from movie showings to drawing classes, and from community animation draws to artist talks.

SAAS is a great opportunity for students to network with their peers and surrounding community while strengthening their portfolios and gaining real-world experiences.
