Animation workshop for kids and adults with De Animatiebus!
About this event
Are you looking for a creative way to spend a Saturday or Sunday for yourself or your children? Are you ready to let go of your everyday life and dive into your creativity? In our animation workshop we invite you to play and explore the possibilities of stop motion animation in an approachable and fun way. Does this sound like something for you? Then search no further!
ABOUT THIS EVENT
During Leiden Shorts, De Animatiebus turns our location into a small animation factory. Young and old are invited to roll up their sleeves and create their own stop motion animation. The workshop will take on average 1.5 hours (but participants can stay as long as they need to finish their film).
As a participant, you will create your own storyline and invent the characters and context of their plot. You will think of a script, draw, cut, glue and colour the elements of their story. Once all elements are ready, you will assemble every frame of the story under the “rolling” camera using the stop motion technique. The (finalised) films can be taken home. After the workshop, you will have acquired the basic skills to make a short film with an app that can also be used on your own devices.
The workshop is suited to anyone above the age of 5.
The cost of the workshop is €5,-. If you buy 2 tickets, you get a third one for free!
Shorts for Shorties
On Sunday the animation workshop can be combined with the 'Shorts for Shorties' film session, curated exclusively for young children (ages 3 to 10) at Kijkhuis, beginning at 10:30am. Films in this session tell stories without the use of language or subtitles, which will stimulate your children’s creativity, joy, and imagination, and will bring out the kid even in the most mature viewers.
