Claymation, or clay animation, is a type of stop-motion animation that uses frame-by-frame images to capture the motion of clay figures. In this exciting mixed media studio workshop, children will write the story, create and construct characters, design sets and photograph scenes. Components covered in workshops and courses include writing the story, creating characters, fashioning dialogue, designing sets, creating lighting and sound effects, and photographing the scenes.
