A128: A Documentary about Illustration

Students at Sheridan College turn the camera on their own program, asking what illustration actually is and why anyone still chooses to draw for a living in a world full of photography and digital tools. Teachers, working artists, and students sit for interviews about craft, technique, and the daily grind of building a portfolio, while the film cuts to sketchbooks, studio spaces, and works in progress. The tone stays practical rather than reverent: people talk about deadlines, critique sessions, and the gap between what students imagine the job will be and what it actually involves. There is no single narrator pushing an argument; instead the film assembles a range of voices from inside one program to build a picture of illustration as a discipline and a career. It runs short and stays focused, functioning as a portrait of a specific art school class as much as a general statement on the field.
