Workshop-Stop motion animation films
Stop motion is an animation technique where you take pictures of an object. By moving the object each time before taking the picture, an animated film is created. An important condition is that the camera must not be moved during this process. This technique has been around for years and is ideal for filming a story. Stop motion is very time-consuming because many photos have to be taken.
In this workshop, you will first make up a story with your group and create a storyboard. After this, you get to work on filming everything. It is important to work well together and to divide the tasks. This way, you will get a nice end result.
Using a simple computer programme, the animated film comes to life. You can also add all kinds of fun things, such as music or sound effects. The films can be viewed afterwards.
