Animation is not only fun to watch, it’s fun to make! With stop motion animation, everything around you can come alive! In this camp we’ll explore the basics of animation and work together and in small groups to develop stories, build props and characters, animate them, create soundtracks, and present to the world the amazing things we can do through the powers of stop motion.

Tuition: $190
