Stop Frame Animation
This Curriculum Day enables students to gain experience in script writing and storyboarding prior to placing ideas into real life stop-motion animations. This popular event allows students to implement their creativity in storytelling whilst providing opportunities to explore the impact of music, transitions and sets which are required in the process of producing a quality film. The exact nature of the film will be customised to a current subject or project planned at your school. The skills learned during this Curriculum Day can be utilised within school through the loan of cameras and laptops to develop a project at school.
