Come learn about the history of the art that moves. We'll briefly discuss the wide spectrum of animation from Oskar Fischinger (of Fantasia) to Chuck Jones (of Looney Tunes) and the many animators in-between. In addition we will create zoetropes, flip-books, thumatropes and other short animations complete with sound effects and music. The Teen Animation Club is a guided independent studio where teens are open to any animation technique. We'll supply the digital video animation equipment and materials; you bring the imagination. The Animation Club meets for two hours a day for five consecutive days of the summer. There will be a formal screening of student projects at the end of the course. All animators will receive a DVD of projects created in the workshop.
