WORKSHOPS & EDUCATION
Young Animators is a mobile initiative which covers the breath of Aotearoa.
We are passionate about providing our Rangatahi (youth) with the opportunity and resources they need to excel in the digital world of today.

SETTING & STAGING PROCESSES
Using industry practices we create a staged scene for animation. Groups are tasked with using a mixture of familiar props and digital technologies and combining them with real world physical principles.
SCENE STAGING
BIOMECHANICS
MOVEMENT THROUGH ANIMATION
Students are challenged to analyse and dissect movement and how the body operates. We teach them how to see the world through different eyes what the muscles, skeleton, hair, cloth and shifts of weight convey and how these idea's influence character and story telling.
2D ANIMATION PRINCIPLES
We take students and teachers through the basic principles of animation covering animation techniques such as 2D animation on software.
