As part of After School Special: The 2019 School of Visual Arts Alumni Film & Animation Festival, we are pleased to present a special 3D screening of the Academy Award-winning animated film Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018). Following the film, we'll be joined by three SVA alumni who worked as artists/animators on the film -- Benjamin Aguillon, Chris Hung, and Lisa Suzuki. The film will be preceded by the animated short The Road Not Taken, created by SVA alumna Ellen Su. The Q&A will be moderated by current student Sara Zarul Azham (MFA 2020 Computer Arts).

Synopsis: Teen Miles Morales becomes Spider-Man of his reality, crossing his path with five counterparts from other dimensions to stop a threat for all realities.

Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse is rated PG, and some material may be inappropriate for children under the age of 8. Children under the age of 3 may not be admitted.

.... And come early to enjoy augmented and virtual reality and music video experiences in the lobby.
