Take your students' animation skills to the next level through this full-day workshop.

In this workshop, students work in production groups to bring a short script to life, whilst exploring character movement and expression. Students will engage in important pre-production planning to ensure their claymation-like projects are successful, and use a variety of camera shots and angles to elevate their animations, before completing their animations with a variety of sound effects.

Students will:

  • use professional armatures
  • delve into animation pre-production skills such as storyboarding
  • time camera shots through frame counting
  • produce a short animation using professional animation equipment
  • engage with sound design to elevate their finished product

Important information

This is a full day program for upwards of 28 students, and we recommend students have experience with stop motion animation already. It does not include an exhibition visit.

If considering booking a lower-secondary aged group in, please read the workshops description carefully beforehand, or reach out to education@acmi.net.au with any questions.
