BIG QUESTION: Are old film techniques still fit for purpose today?
This course teaches students about stop motion animation. Stop motion is a form of animation technique that involves capturing a series of still images and then playing them in sequence at a fast pace to create the illusion of movement. Students will follow the Tech Process to plan, prepare and create their own short films (either individually or in peers) for a target audience.
