Digital and Traditional Animation for Kids (Ages 8-11)

Animation is a versatile medium that allows for the creation of movement in both analogue and digital formats.

Animation is a versatile medium that allows for the creation of movement in both analogue and digital formats. This class will go over both, with half of the time spent on traditional animation projects such as flip books, paper cutout stop motion, and zoetrops; and the other half working digitally with hand drawn 2D animation on iPads. Students will leave the camp with physical animation pieces, digital animations practicing various techniques, a group collaborative project, and a better understanding of animation as a whole.
