This is a great class for young filmmakers with a flair for zoology. Students will work with mixed media materials like clay, wire, fabric and paper to build their favorite creatures and surrounding habitats. Using iStopmotion software, they will learn basic stop motion techniques to help bring their creatures to life. Young filmmakers will develop skills in design, character development, and narration as they explore their chosen subjects. From the highest mountain top to the bottom of the ocean, no beast-filled region will go unturned in this class!
About Fall Art Colony
During this fall’s school vacation days, children can harness their creativity in immersive, hands-on arts camps offered all day at the museum. Led by CMA’s Teaching Artists, camps introduce a range of art-making techniques and mediums, from animation, to painting, to sculpture, to 3D printing, and so much more! You can rest assured your child is in a supervised, creative environment, and they get to spend the day making art and new friends. It’s a win-win.
Classes run from 10 AM – 4 PM. CMA understands your need for a convenient schedule that fits into your workday, that’s why drop-off time between 9 – 10 AM and pick-up time between 4 – 5 PM is included. Explore the wide variety of class offerings for ages 6 – 12 this fall!
