About this Event
Two intermediate level workshops exploring Claymation – an advanced technique in stop motion animation.
This 2-part workshop offers an in-depth exploration of stop-motion animation, focusing on the advanced technique of Claymation. Topics include animation principles like squash and stretch, exaggeration, anticipation, and arcs, along with basic facial animation. Hands-on practice will involve animating a clay ball and a blob character. By the end of the workshop, participants will have created a short character animation piece and will have an animatable character to take home. Previous experience with stop motion animation is recommended. \
Clay and materials are included with registration.
\Participants will need a phone or tablet with a stop motion animation app such as iStopMotion or Stop Motion Studio, and a tripod mount. DSLR or Mirrorless cameras are also an option, but they must be paired with a computer stop motion program.
