This hands-on workshop immerses children in the world of stop-motion animation. Participants work in pairs to craft a storyboard, design backgrounds, create unique characters, and shoot still frames using iPads. With added sound and special effects, their imaginative stories come to life, enhancing their creativity, critical thinking, and tech skills in an engaging way.

We will have a short lunch break during this workshop. Children will need to BYO lunch.

This workshop is managed and funded by Tanks Art Centre and Cairns Regional Council.
