All participants will start from scratch, learning the processes of how to move the animation, record the sound, then put it together for their final video! From simple common devices (eg. smartphones), to professional equipment (eg. MIDI Keyboards), participants will practice using different devices for recording music and sound effects for their videos. Lego characters will be made for stop Motion Animation.
On the last day of camp, there will be a showcasing of all the things they have learnt and created throughout the week.
