Create your own animation! Join us for a fun-filled 1.5 hour animation workshop where creativity comes to life!

Workshop highlights: Step into a world where your imagination takes centre stage. Using papaer and collage, participants will create their own characters and scenes, learning stop-frame animation with cameras and easy-to-use software to bring their stories to life on-screen.

What you'll do:

Make your own characters and scenes - using paper and collage to design your animated world.

Create a storyboard - plan your animation by creating storyboards that outline your story's flow.

Learn stop-frame animation - discover the basics with cameras and user-friendly software. 

Bring your ideas to life - watch your story unfold on screen as you animate your creations.

Additional details: This workshop is perfect for budding animators and creative minds. No experience is needed - just bring your imagination and enthusiasm.

Please bring 8-11 year old students to the workshop beginning at 10:30, and please book 12-14 year old students onto the workshop beginning at 1pm. Students will be working in small groups of 2-3 people.
