Crossing the Screen and the Eastbourne International Animation Festival present: Charcoal Animation Workshop
Learn erasure charcoal animation.
Using your mobile phone, accessible animation software and a camera stand as your rostrum, you'll create a loop (or series of loops) from original charcoal drawings.
This is a learning experience for all levels of animation and drawing ability. For those more experienced in frame-by-frame animation, this workshop will grow your skills in fine-art moving-image practice. And for individuals at the earlier stages of animation learning, this workshop will be a jumping off point for you in realising technique and composition using a very tactile and agile medium - charcoal.
Guidance is provided, so are the materials. All you'll need to bring is your mobile phone, complete with the Stop Motion Studio app, and heaps of creativity and imagination.
