Unleash your creativity in this fun-filled stop-motion animation class designed for young artists! Working as a team, students will learn how to combine physical sculptures with digital drawings to create moving pictures. At the beginning of this camp, we'll be creating mini dioramas for scenery using materials like clay, cardboard, masking tape, paper, markers, and paint. After photographing our hand-built scenery, we'll begin using digital tools - drawing all moving details and characters on top of the scenery photographs using the Procreate app on iPad.
By the end of the class, these kids will have a complete animated short film they created from start to finish!

ADA ACCESSIBILITY & ACCOMMODATIONS:
Our classrooms are ADA accessible. Some courses may involve tasks or activities that may be difficult for individuals with limited strength, difficulty bending over, and sitting or standing for long periods of time. We are happy to work with students to find solutions to make their experience positive and doable. For example, wheel throwing takes arm strength and bending over the wheel. Students may work on hand-building projects instead of throwing. Please reach out to our office to discuss your needs.
