Claymation
Stop-motion from the ground up.
Students learn the craft of stop-motion film production from scratch — and walk away with their own individual movie.
What students do
Every session is hands-on and project-based. Students collaborate with a vetted teaching artist, work through structured challenges, and leave with something they made — a model, a recording, a portfolio piece, a finished dish, or a performance.
Who it's for: Students curious about Claymation who learn best by building, making, and doing.
