The Stop Motion Animation Basics course will

expressive range of "frame by frame" manipulation
to awaken life into inanimate objects.
The assignments will centre on the themes of
metamorphosis, found image, embodying voice, the

introduce students to animation and photographic
techniques covering both 2d and 3d principles.
The course encourages students to find their own

voice within Stop Motion practice.
