Why Choose This Course?
Step into the world of animation to bring the magic of Antarctica to life! Guided by Gavin and Jordan from Young Art USA, students will learn the fundamentals of stop-motion animation while celebrating the beauty of the Antarctic wilderness.
This week, students will create models of Antarctic animals using recycled materials and animate them through stop-motion techniques. They’ll bring their creations to life frame by frame, crafting stories about the challenges these creatures face in their natural habitats. At the end of the week, the classroom will host a special film night to showcase the students’ work to the community.
