This one-day workshop will examine traditional 3-D clay, foam and object animation using various films as examples and will culminate in the creation of a group-made 3-D animation. The day will include screening a number of films, going over basic film and lighting techniques, as well as discussing basic animation techniques. Participants will shoot a short animation sequence then view the finished product digitally. This workshop is ideal for those interested in 3-D animation seeking to make their first film.

The Camera Theory workshop is strongly recommended as a prerequisite.
