In this one-hour workshop class, I will demonstrate techniques for controlling multiple object movements when capturing frames for one or more shots in an animation sequence. We will explore strategies for managing multiple movements in students’ own animation creations, and we’ll discuss specific approaches for students’ own animation ideas - especially ways to help yourself keep track of these multiple changes across any number of shots, for different parts of shots and sequences. (Think about what it takes to look in two different directions while you’re running in a straight light for ten seconds!) At the end of the hour, students will be ready to tackle more complicated motion shots and sequences in their own animation projects.
Learning Goals
Students will learn techniques for planning and tracking multiple movements across shots for improved precision in the capture of complex motion in their stop motion animations.

Parental Guidance
There is no sensitive content in this class.
Supply List
Students do not need to purchase any materials. Any stop motion animation app is appropriate for this class, but students do not need to download any apps to follow along with the class. Students can use any materials available on hand in their homes to practice animation techniques in this class (e.g., dolls, model cars, legos, coffee mugs, building blocks, cardboard boxes, coins, etc.)
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.

Teacher expertise and credentials
I think stop motion is an excellent combination of the arts, science, math, and technology. As an art form, it is accessible and approachable to anyone, regardless of background knowledge.
I have been making stop-motion animated films for nearly thirty years, starting when I was a middle school student. I currently run The Wolfbird studios, a learning-focused animation and interactive media studio. The most recent stop motion animation, created in collaboration with a dance professor at a nearby university, is currently on the festival circuit and has already started winning awards: most recently Best Experimental Film at the Frostbite International Online Film Festival.
