Stop-Motion Animation

The most popular toy meets the most popular form of entertainment! Using the magic of stop motion animation (“Frankenweenie”, “Paranorman”). Join this exciting class where students will storyboard their idea, then design, create and animate their own clay character. The process starts with building an armature or “Skeleton” for the character. Then all layers of clay are applied until the character is ready for the camera. Students will utilize iPods to make their characters come to life. After the filming is complete, they will choose their music and supply the voice-over.
