Full event details

In this workshop we will explore the simple principle behind 
animation. Working on A3 paper grids, with each rectangle 
representing a single frame, students will create a 4 second 
animation. Animators work using keyframes. An image sequence 
that creates the illusion of smooth movement and life are placed 
in between the keyframe. This sequence of images are called the 
‘in-betweens”. This workshop will allow students to practically 
and very rapidly see how these in-betweens work, and how much 
you will need to change the next image to create smooth animated 
movements. This workshop allows students to work on paper but 
easily see the results of animated drawings instantaneously. As we 
progress, we create a collaborative animation that grows before 
your eyes.
