Tell your own animated stories with FilmScene! At Animation Camp, campers imagine and create their own animations, totally from scratch. Each day, campers learn the key principles of animation and explore the styles of 2D paper, 3D object, Pixilation, Claymation, and replacement animation and then apply these lessons by making their own videos!

Take your stop motion skills to the next level in our advanced class! Campers who have taken our general Animation Camp twice previously are invited to work on honing acquired skills, learn more challenging techniques, and apply knowledge to longer and more story-driven projects. Both content and grading criteria will be more challenging than the standard course and students will be working alongside and collaborating with fellow veteran animators.

In this week-long camp, campers will learn the history of miniature making, study design, and create their own miniature set pieces, including buildings, terrain, and more! And, added to this year’s curriculum will be 3D printing.

Many of us are familiar with the tropes and motifs of 1940s noir: the shadows and shadowy characters, the femme fatales, the canted angles, the mysteries, and the murder. In the 1970s, neo-noir emerged as a spin-off genre with similar narratives, but formal and stylistic changes. This is a 3-week course on neo-noir.

The end of summer showcase for animation camp students and their families to see their work on the big screen.
