12 week Animation engagement project with ARC's Age Well over 60's group, in aid of combating loneliness and isolation. 

Introducing participants to different techniques of animation, including hand drawn, collage and stop motion, with the overall aim of producing their own film to be exhibited at both Cosgrove Hall Films archive and ARC.

 

In person and online exhibition of work to be announced. 

HAND DRAWN TECHNIQUE

Tracing 9 frames of a cheetah run cycle in their own style, with their own background.

COLLAGE TECHNIQUE

Creating a collage style background out of magazine cuttings, choosing elements that will move. Participants were shown examples of collage animation and shown how elements can be manipulated to move, like cutting the joint of a finger to allow it to be posable in front of camera.

STOP MOTION TECHNIQUE

Participants are provided with material to make their own head, which will be attached to an armature body and animated.
