Adventure in animation
Animation workshops are a direct way to ask questions and seek answers on a wide variety of topics, because almost anything can be created in animation. Animation is usually perceived as belonging to popular culture, and therefore considered primarily as entertainment, but it can also be used to introduce children and young people to various fields – cultural history, music, art, computer science, natural science, etc. Animation also needs a certain degree of believability. How far can you go for people to believe what you tell and show them.
In the creative animation workshops, the participants are introduced to the wide application possibilities of animation (films, web pages, moving cards, games, elements of scenography, advertisements, etc.). Individually and working in groups, each participant is given the opportunity to improve themselves and present themselves positively in a creative atmosphere, working with modern technical means and technologies. The development of animation develops the creative abilities of children and young people in creating and drawing a story, as well as makes them perform planned actions, which indirectly makes them learn organizational skills. Participants have the opportunity to develop mutual communication and collaboration skills.
Each participant can take on the role of scriptwriter, director, image and background artist. You can try what it’s like to be a cameraman or a lighting and props master.
