Since 2019, Sisler CREATE has been working closely with Nickelodeon animators, producers and staff as part of The Orange Tree Project, a collaboration between Sisler CREATE and Nickelodeon Community Efforts.
Teams of post-high students (as well as some high school participants) receive monthly mentorship from Nickelodeon artists on the creation of short animated films or animated series development.
These artists generously donate their time to work with our students, and often go above in beyond in this regard. As a result, our students leave the program with industry-level skills and professional project experience.
A huge thanks to Carson Smith, Nickelodeon Vice President of Community Outreach for all you have done for our students!
