This course is designed for students who already have experience in animation. It offers them the opportunity to develop a project – personal or collective – in stopmotion animation. It can be a short animated film, an aesthetic and/or technical research project, or any other experiment. Topics are open and chosen freely by the participants.
Teaching takes the form of project follow-up. The course proposes a three-part schedule: preparation, execution and finalisation. This schedule may or may not be followed, depending on the nature of the project.
The first session is dedicated to reflecting on the project. By the end of the class, students are asked to submit a short PDF document outlining their project. Following the preparation, each student presents their project for discussion with their peers. An assessment screening is held at the end of the final session.
students may work on their personal laptops
