Holiday Animation Camp Was a Blast...
... and an all-around success. Thanks goes out to all our volunteer staffers and the awesome
participants - youth and adults!
In case you are reading this and weren't there, on December 2, 2007 we had a great one-day animation crash course at The Sanctuary for Independent Media. Participants young and old came together in North Troy from different parts of the capital region to learn the magic of stop-motion... do-it-yourself - style.
We started with a quick media literacy lesson - talking about the ever-presence of media messaging and advertising, and watching some examples of youth-produced media. Then we split into three groups and made our short animations -
from the brainstorm...
pic coming soon
to the constructions of characters and backgrounds...
to the actual "moving and clicking" using laptops and framethief
The theme for the animations was "What Really Matters for the Holidays?" ... and here are the wonderful animations:
Miracle in the Mall
