HOP STOP: Pixar Shorts & Animation Creation
September 27 @ 11:00 am
11:00 am: Workshop in the Nearburg Gallery and Art Forum
11:30 am: Film screening in Loew Auditorium
Craft a moving image and explore the magic of cinematic storytelling!
Join us for an interactive workshop at the Hopkins Center for the Arts, led by Junction Arts & Media Staff. Participants will create a phenakistiscope, one of the earliest forms of media animation. Spinning the disc creates the illusion of movement through a series of images, letting you bring your drawings to life with a simple twist of the wrist. This activity blends creativity with science to turn your sketch into a story!
Next, enjoy a selection of Pixar short films, known for their heartwarming stories, imaginative worlds and unforgettable characters. These shorts continue to inspire audiences and storytellers around the world.
Sign up HERE.
This workshop is best suited for youth ages 5 and up, but younger children can participate with adult assistance.
