Description
Ready to bring your imagination to life? In this fun 8-week class, students will learn to animate and illustrate their own creatures and characters! Explore the basics of stop-motion animation, build a puppet, and experiment with digital animation tools like Procreate to bring stories to life.
Along the way, students will build confidence, try new art techniques, and complete 2–3 animation projects they will be proud to show others! A sketchbook is required.
