Design students, start your motors! Starting with 2D designs, students will create 3D constructions with found objects, wood, wire, and other cool stuff. Then we'll make them move with engines like pull-strings, battery powered, and wind-up motors and more!

Free after-school pick-up from P.S. 107 CLASSIC ANIMATION MACHINES
[grades K-2 : Drop-off]

We go to the roots of animation and make moving cartoons - without cameras or computers! Kids will explore classic cameraless animation devices, such as flipbooks, painting on film, zoetropes and many other scopes and tropes! We'll learn about the history of animation, and watch some examples. And we'll look at storytelling through the use of storyboards, and then put our characters into motion.
