Animation is just another way of telling a story

Christopher Miller

Create your very own stop motion film!

Calling all budding film makers and animators!

Join the the Sydney Opera House team as we deep dive into the wild and wonderful world of stop motion animation! Be guided step-by-step as we design and create unique characters and worlds from found objects and bring them to life through the magic of motion.

Kids will learn visual storytelling through hands-on tactile play, by making their very own animation and discovering the skills needed to keep creating them at home. A film set up and some materials will be provided but please ensure all children have a recording device of a smart phone or tablet.
