    Animation Film Studios (9-10)

    Our “Animation Film Studios” camp offers an exciting and creative experience. Students will use Pear Tree’s iPads and apps to create their own animated short films. They will animate food items in fun and creative ways. For example, a pizza being made, fruits having a race, or a sandwich assembling itself.

    They will also have a chance to animate a short scene from nature, such as a flower blooming, a caterpillar turning into a butterfly, or animals interacting in the forest. They’ll bring these stories to life using stop-motion, experimenting with various materials like paper, candy, clay, and everyday objects. Finally, they’ll learn to add special effects and music to their animations, making their projects even more dynamic and engaging. At the end of the day, the animations will be shared with other students to showcase their creativity and hard work!
