Tina Le Moine Workshops Art in my Sandbox (Grades: K - 3) A playful introduction to Animation. Playing in sandboxes has been proven to calm the mind. Draw, write and create in a tabletop sandbox, recording the process with a camera. Throw in some shells, rocks and figurines and see where your imagination will take you! Animation on the Light Table (Grades: K - 12/sec V) Using natural materials such as pine needles, grains, sand and adding cut-out characters, students will manipulate objects on a light table and film them. Students will be encouraged to watch and correct their actions; sounds and titles will be added (time allowing), all resulting in a beautiful and smooth silhouette animation. Older students will begin the process with storyboards and all animations can be tied to current themes. In a one-hour workshop students will be introduced to animation, animating 2D shapes on creative backgrounds. Pixilation (Grades: K - 12/sec V) This type of animation uses real people as the objects; they are moved and photographed after each small step. The result is an animation where the students will fly or slide through the classroom, get carried around in a giant hand, get picked up by huge fingers or speed around in chairs converted to race cars. The end result will be a short, quirky video. Poetry in Stop Motion (Grades: K - 12/sec V) Explore the basics of animation as students put images to collaboratively written stories. Students will record their voices reciting their piece of writing and then animate it using different techniques. The resulting video will be a poetic animation movie with sound and credits.
