Get ready to build! Before the days of CG special effects, stop motion animation played a big role in making science fiction a "reality" on screen. 

In the second of this 3-part workshop, learn the technical fabrication aspects of stop motion animation: create your own characters on wire armatures and construct and finish the props and scenery for an original science fiction short!

Age range is 13+. These workshops will be best suited for the young and young at heart, 8th grade and up. Younger guests can join in with a parent.

Note: this workshop is also offered on Saturday and Sunday
