The moving image doesn't need to be bound to a two-dimensional plane, neither does it need to be solely a three-dimensional medium. Animation, with its variety of techniques, gives us the opportunity to break the boundaries between dimensions. By mixing cutout (2D animation) with the real world (stop-motion) we can explore and create meaningful relations between different types of images, we can play with perspective and perception of scale. Through the lens of animation we can explore new ways of thinking about the public space and the spaces we live in.In this workshop every participant, working alone or as a group, will create their own animations mixing cutout-animation and stop-motion, while learning about animation's most important principles: acceleration, deceleration, timing, spacing, anticipation, overshoot and persistence of vision.
Every participant should have their phone with the free app "Aardman Animator" or "Stop Motion Studio" installed. Any kind of phone support, like a stand or a tripod, will be helpful but not required.
