Learn the artwork and magic of stop motion filmmaking through abstract and experimental animations, creating characters and giving life to the objects around you. In this four-week virtual program, you will use elements of nature and everyday objects, along with illustration and clay, to explore the world of storytelling. Stop motion animations will be created using a free application that can be downloaded on either an iPad or iPhone. Additional materials provided in the custom art kit.
