Stop Frame Animation Workshops

Make your own short film using traditional animation techniques. Using a series of camera shots you can animate almost any object.

This method is used by studios such as Aardman Animations, as seen in their 'Wallace and Gromit' series. It involves taking multiple pictures of an object which is moved in small increments over time. Once all these images are assembled into a film editing program you can see fluid movement. Animate people, inanimate objects or create detailed plasticine figures. The choice is yours.

Below are some projects completed by Node students.
