Family frames: stop motion animation workshop

Create a stop motion animation of your family's life using collage and drawing techniques
About this Event

Taking inspiration from Djofray Makumbu’s exhibition, Snap!, we will work together in groups to create our own stop motion animations. Through drawing, cut out and collage, we will set the scene of our own family lives and animate them with the people, objects and occurrences that make our individual families unique. By placing our cut outs on different backgrounds, layering scenes and actions, we will use the stop motion app on our smart phones to record a short animation, that documents a 'snap' in the life of your family. People are invited to reimagine what a family is and could be, looking to the past and thinking to the future. Recording your own narrative or musical score to accompany the animation will be encouraged.

All materials provided. You will need to download the free stop motion app on your smartphone before attending the workshop so you can record your animation. If you do not have a smartphone, a tablet will be available.
