Animation is the art of creating the illusion of motion through frame-by-frame manipulation. Join us for a hands-on workshop exploring different techniques of stop motion animation including mixed media, hand drawn, and cut paper. Participants will work in groups and on individual projects inspired by theme. No previous art or computer training is required, just a good imagination and some patience.

She was in the official selection for the 2008 Nicktoons Animation Festival, and is currently Interning on Cartoon Network's Ugly Americans.
