In partnership with PRIMAA (Peace Region Independent Media Arts Association) and GPRC (Grande Prairie Regional College, and presented by AMAAS (Alberta Media Arts Alliance Society), the Stop-Motion Animation workshop for ages 16+ provides an opportunity for participants to learn the refined and delicate art of making a giant bloopy mess, also
known as stop-motion animation. No experience necessary, but lack of
experience is encouraged and will be celebrated. Over two days, the
mystery of stop-motion will be systematically dismantled, as
participants learn how easy it is to make their own animation. Each
participant will work at a station equipped with a camera, light and
computer, and will get their hands greasy learning how to animate
frame-by-frame. Short exercises to start with, including plenty of time
for experiments. By the end of the weekend, everyone will contribute a
short segment to a musical claymation masterpiece that will screen at
the start of the Best of the Fest film package at the
Reel Shorts Film Festival.
