“Art, science and craft infused activities for curious minds.”

STOP MOTION MANIA: Lights! Camera! BUILD!

In this amazing stop frame animation and pixilation workshop we learn the tools and techniques to create our very own stop motion movie. Participants will write scripts, draw story boards and then construct characters to animate into life in a fun collaborative environment.

ACTIVITIES:

Explore the principles of 'persistence of vision' and learn how all kinds of animated effects can be achieved. Create story boards and scripts. Make a phenakisascope, zoetrope or praxinoscope. Learn how to construct models around armatures and light them for stop frame animation using simple materials and equipment like mobile phones. And most of all, learn how to inject life and drama into your creations!
