Stop Motion Animation
Turn your favorite objects, toys, paper scraps, and treasured tchotchkes into tiny movie stars! Learn the magic of stop-motion animation and a little bit of the history and theory of this fun medium, while engaging in creative play using a simple setup you can easily recreate at home. You’ll bring inanimate objects to life and leave the session with a collection of short animated GIFS. No prior animation or drawing experience required.

Kalika Sharma is the Founder/Creative Director of award-winning motion & video agency AntidoteFX. She’s directed campaigns for Carnegie Hall & Marriott Bonvoy, and title sequences for TV & film. But teaching is where her heart is: since 2005 she’s shared her love of animation with hundreds of students at NYU & Pratt Institute, and taught countless professionals how to add motion to their skill-set. Kalika inspires her students to reach for the stars: they’ve gone on to win Emmys, an Oscar, and even animate for NASA. In her spare time, she enjoys drawing obsessively patterned pictures, creating stop-motion animation experiments, & crafting with repurposed materials.
