SUMMARY:‘Stop Framing’ Helston
DESCRIPTION:Six week creative media course\nCreate your own short animation with Tamara Rosenwyn (12+)\n6pm-8pm Tuesdays from 21 April\nBook Here (FREE for Basement Members – join for FREE today on our homepage) \n‘Stop Framing’ Helston \nLearn to create your own stop-frame animation from scratch — all you need is your phone and your imagination. \nWhat is stop-frame animation? \nStop-frame animation is the art of bringing still objects to life — frame by frame.

A finished film that’s completely yours\, ready to share with the world. \nWhat you’ll get out of it \n Creative skills — Art\, storytelling\, photography\, music and video all woven into one project \n Tech skills — Use your own smartphone to shoot and produce your animation \n Teamwork skills — Project planning\, team-building\, role delegation and time management \n Wellbeing — Build focus\, self-expression and confidence through hands-on making \nYour tutor \n Tamara Rosenwyn — Animator & course leader \nTamara created her first stop-frame animation at age 17 and went on to win Runner Up at the Royal Television Society Awards (Student Category). She’s seen first-hand how animation builds confidence\, creativity and real-world skills — and she can’t wait to pass that on.
