From simple cartoon TV shows to commercials to big-budget 3D animated films, animation is everywhere and is a medium that has told some of the most iconic stories of our time. It’s an age-old craft that has grown by leaps and bounds over the years with the advent of new technologies, but the basic techniques of making still images come to life with movement remain the same. Using these techniques, campers will explore the different types of animations including 2D hand-drawn, stop-motion, animated GIFs, 2D digital using Adobe Flash and 3D animations. This camp is for beginners as well as experienced animators. No experience required!
