This stop motion video was a group project by the VCAL students of Hastings Vic, funded by Peninsula Health. The animation process consisted of 4 x 2 hour sessions, covering the foundations of modelling, movement, camera and sound.

"Thank you so much Brett for facilitating our cartoon workshop ! You were an absolute hit with the children and kept them engaged the entire time. You were very professional and a real natural when it comes to teaching. Thank you again and I look forward to working with you again in the near future."

 

"I just wanted to thank you for the cartooning incursion last Thursday. It was fantastic and the children loved it."

1. CARDYTOONS CARTOON WORKSHOP

In this interactive workshop kids will learn the basics of cartooning.

Starting with the most important part of expressions - the EYES. Moving to putting faces together, learning how to draw hand movements and then developing characters.

Including time at the end for a quick and fun caricature of a teacher.*

 

2. CARDYTOONS CARTOON WORKSHOP 2.0

This workshop is a follow up session where kids explore different cartooning styles.

How to draw actions and motion. How to draw animals and other objects into the scene.*

 

3. CARDYTOONS COMIC WORKSHOP

This comic strips workshop will get the kids developing their own fun comics.

A great idea for students to work on a school project or presentation.*

 

4. CARDYTOONS CARICATURE WORKSHOP

By the end of this session students will be drawing caricatures of our 'Pollies' or other famous people. They will have an understanding of what to look for in a person's features to turn them into a caricature.*

 

5. CARDYTOONS ANIMATION WORKSHOP

This is a specialty workshop working with 2D animation or Stop Motion / Claymation.

This is designed for groups of up to 25 students. It can be run as a once off hands-on intro

or over the course of time (Cardy can work as an "artist in residence").

Creating animation is a fantastic way to see the students at work.**

 

Watch them smile! ART inspires, develops confidence, and enriches our imaginations.
