Come step inside the magical world of stop motion animation!
I offer a hands-on, mindful art-making exploration of this amazing animation technique in a creative mixed media style. Through this unique approach to stop motion, participants will not only learn to develop their ideas with collaborative and individual work, but also how to express themselves through various materials while thinking outside the box. I have had the pleasure of leading a plethora of inclusive workshops, camps, courses and seminars both online and in person with various art organizations, universities and schools around the world.
It's all about frame-by-frame fun at any age!
