SWING INTO SKETCHING Use a pencil to lightly sketch the shape of Spider-Man. Start at the top, with the tapered oval of his head. Add a rounded crosshair to mark the centre of the face and the eye line. The torso is a narrow bulb while the arms and legs are all cylindrical.

FAST FOUR WITH SOUMYA K-Z : Hi Soumya! Why did you make the app? S: The app is for when you don’t have time to take care of your pet or no one to help. You have two choices; pet walking or pet sitting. You have to put the day and time, and then a picture of your dog with their name. I worked on it over three to four weeks. I wanted someone to take care of dogs that get upset their owner is not at home, so they have someone to play with. I used to have a dog and sometimes when I was going to school she would be upset.

Working with Lin-Manuel Miranda has been incredible, he is so kind. The cast and filmmakers are special people that I love for many different reasons. I FIRST SAW THE DESIGN FOR ANTONIO… In the booth recording my lines! I was amazed and couldn’t believe he…
