STOP MOTION ANIMATION | 9AM-5PM | $75

GODOT CODING | 9AM-5PM | $75

STOP MOTION ANIMATION

KIDS - Ages 7-12

This hands-on Stop Motion workshop is perfect for young filmmakers and animators alike. Stop Motion animation is the art of making everyday objects and toys come to life through the illusion of motion. To achieve this, students will take a still photo, move their subject a tiny amount, take another photo, and repeat 16-32 times to capture a motion. When played back in a video, it looks like the subject is moving without any assistance! Students will be exploring the fundamentals of filmmaking, animation, and the Stop Motion Studio application on IOS/Android.

GODOT CODING

KIDS - Ages 7-12

Coding allows us to express creativity! In this workshop, students will get to do that very thing as they work with the Godot Engine to implement game logic using its visual coding software. Starting with a tower defense game template, students will learn to add new features and customize variables, both manually and automatically during gameplay. They will also gain an understanding of code structure, formatting to avoid errors, and how to use loops to design game mechanics that depend on specific outcomes. Throughout the workshop, students will develop essential programming skills while enhancing their game projects with unique features.
