This winter break, Kunstnernes Hus invites you to a creative and educational character film workshop for children who want to explore storytelling, animation and film production – from idea to finished film!
About the workshop
Through two intensive and fun course days, the children will:
- Make a story and develop their own characters
- Build miniature figures and scenes
- Learn stop motion technique
- Photography and animation
- Edit the film and view it on the big screen
The course provides both technical and creative skills, and the children work in small groups where collaboration, imagination and problem solving are at the center.
