What will happen in this session?

In this session, we will be exploring and experimenting with stop frame animation. Children can work alone or work with their family members to build a stop frame animation. We will then explore stop frame animation to bring storytelling to life through using different techniques such as backward animation, sensory playing and playing with everyday objects.

Session Structure

  • Introduction & warm up anagram games.
  • Introduction to Stop Frame Animation.
  • Learn to digitally make in Stop Frame Animation: basic animation programming, how to input sound creatively, use speed within frames, be playful with everyday tactile sensory objects and create backward animation.
