Animation

is done mostly as integral part of teaching art. With children we use stop-motion technique. It offers the most direct way to give statues, paintings and drawings the quality of movement and the dimension of time. A kind of magical transformation into motion, giving “life” to still images. Which adds to creation quality, excitement and attachment. On the way children aquainte themselves with the basics of film language: impression of a movement, transition between sequences as a building blocks of a story and with the planning of the movements and sequences in order to construct the story.
