Budding animators can learn new animation skills thanks to a beginners animation course at Chapter Arts Centre.
The course is led by award-winning professional animator Lauren Orme from Winding Snake Productions.
During the course, students will experiment with different hands-on animation techniques such as drawing, cutout, stop motion, paint on glass and sand animation, and experience the magic of bringing still objects and images to life.
Students will also create their own animated music video, as well as gaining the technical skills, knowledge and enthusiasm to embark on their own animation projects.
Principle project manager Amy Morris said, “The course is a great way to develop teamwork skills and work alongside other people who are interested in animation. Winding Snake provides a warm, friendly and supportive learning environment.”
