What does it mean to have impact?

At Sheridan, we pride ourselves on the many actions we take throughout the year to serve as a resource hub in our home communities of Brampton, and Oakville. But how do our actions lead to impact — and how is our impact defined, measured and achieved? We think having impact means generating value, earning and sustaining people’s trust, engaging community partners and making a difference in people’s lives. This year’s report offers a glimpse into just a few of the people and programs that have helped Sheridan make an impact in the areas of human and economic development, environmental sustainability and community building. The pages that follow quantify our impact by reporting on our fiscal accountability and on the contributions of our generous donors, whose investments enable innovation to flourish. As we enter this new decade — under the aegis of our new Sheridan 2024 Strategic Plan — we will continue to relentlessly foster individual transformation, create value for industry and society, and incubate the future of higher education. I hope this report inspires your continued interest and invaluable support. Together, we’re an unstoppable — and highly impactful — force for transformation and prosperity.

Warmly, Janet Morrison, PhD President and Vice Chancellor

Animation students hone their storytelling craft with Pixar

Last November, 25 Sheridan fourth-year animation students were invited to hone their storytelling skills during a two-day workshop with the masters in the business — visiting story artists from Pixar Animation Studios. “At Pixar, our focus on story is very specific,” says Beth Sasseen, Pixar University Relations Manager. “Through these workshops we want to help future storytellers grow, who will in turn help Pixar tell different, diverse stories. We have many Sheridan alumni working at Pixar, so running the workshop here was a natural fit.” Sheridan animation alumni have found great success with Pixar, including Domee Shi (Animation, 2011), who won the Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film in 2018 for her directorial debut, Bao. Workshop leaders, story artists Derek Thompson and Kristen Lester (Animation, 2004), challenged the students to develop and storyboard a short story and pitch it to their peers during the workshop. Storyboards are sequences of simple drawings that help quickly communicate a film’s scenes and narrative. Thompson and Lester guided the students through critique sessions of each other’s work in the style of Pixar’s peer feedback approach, demonstrating how to mine for new details that could reveal more twists, humour and emotional impact in each story. Above all, Thompson and Lester encouraged students to remain authentic and true to the spirit of their own stories. The Pixar team hopes the workshop will Storyboard frame from Isabelle Caron’s short story Trikz. empower the participating students with the skills they will need to make their unique creative voices stand out as they prepare to enter the industry — and notes that the future We have many Sheridan alumni working at Pixar, looks bright for these young animators. so running the workshop here was a natural fit.
