Come play during our hands-on workshop about stop-motion and animation led by CATS+ alumni, Sara Aleyce Roma. Sara will give a brief overview of different forms and styles of stop-motion (including pixilation with human actors), basic animation concepts like onion-skinning, anticipation, ease, and frame count, and give tips on free software currently available for stop-motion. Lastly, we'll break off into small groups to make your own stop-motion animation!

All equipment and materials provided, no need to bring anything. If you're feeling inspired, you're welcome to bring costume elements, props, paper, wire or some other object or material (totally optional).

Presented by the Museum of Human Achievement for the Collaborative Art + Technology Situation (CATS+).

The Collaborative Art + Technology Situation (CATS+) is a program for artists interested in expanding their work in digital and new media. The CATS+ Residency Program brings cohorts of artists and tech wizards together to learn and collaborate on new work. CATS+ promotes troubleshooting, curiosity, and critical thinking around emerging and ubiquitous technologies. We host artist-led workshops, gatherings, mentorships, public showcases, a media art studio, an online wiki to remove the mystery from tech by foregrounding human connection, process, and experimentation.
