ANIMATION IS ALL ABOUT CREATIVITY, ITERACTIVITY AND HEAPS OF FUN!
The vision of Toonworld is simple we Encourage, Empower, Educate and Entertain kids through interactive workshops that are both fun and creative. These workshops are designed to improve communication and literacy while channelling creativity and imagination. We invite your students to join us in discovering the exciting world of Stop Motion Animation and experience the magic of film production.
Toonworld’s workshops are offered nationwide in schools, vacation care centres, shopping centres and children’s festivals around the world.
To support our OSHC Educators and Australian teachers in their vacation care and STEM/STEAM programmes, our Animation Workshops offer the following benefits:
WORKSHOP BENEFITS
- A solid foundation in Stop Motion Animation to support future stem-based learning activities.
- A rich opportunity for students to practice their skills of critical thinking, problem solving and communication.
- Appeal equally to boys and girls alike.
- Students learn the value of developing and taking ownership of their own ideas with specific roles and responsibilities.
- Students gain a deeper understanding of the concept of motion in relation to the physical world.
- Development of team building skills.
In this Simple yet Exciting 90 minute workshop, useful concepts and techniques are taught to Animate effectively.
Students are encouraged to:
- Develop a story (storyboard)
- Design and build the movie background
- Create their own unique characters with modeling clay
- Shoot the still shots (frames) using Ipads and digital tablets
- Add voice and sound effects.
- Present the final cut in front of their peers.
Each Year our Year 3 students complete a unit of study on animations. This unit is a part of our STEAM program. For quite a few years we have travelled from our school in Geelong to Melbourne to take part in an excursion learning about the art of animating. That was until last year when we found Toonworlds. Now we have the Toonworlds team, come to our school and our students are involved in hands on animation workshops with them. These animation workshops are so beneficial and we use them as a catalyst for our animation program. The students learn how to create characters, settings and scripts. They have the opportunity to record their animation using the provided iPads and then at the end of the day showcase all of their work to their families. If you were thinking of teaching your students how to create animations, then I would highly recommend that you use Toonworlds to introduce the concept to your students.
