After School (September): Flipbook Animation
9 hours of fun, professional training for less than $20/hr!
Animation is about so much more than just moving drawings. It’s about drawings that move audiences, and this month, your child will learn that skill and discover that joy.
The Goal: We start simply with a two-pose exercise to build an understanding of the foundation of movement. From there, your child will dive into the physics of motion by tackling the "Bouncing Ball"—the essential exercise for understanding weight and timing that all pro animators start with. They’ll learn how to use squash and stretch to give their drawings a sense of reality and weight.
Mini Final Project: Students will design and animate their own straight-ahead story flipbook. Whether your creative child chooses to animate something silly, an action scene, or something abstract—we’ll be here to support them through every page of their journey. You’ll also receive a video of their finished animation after our month wraps up!
THE LOGISTICS
⏰ When: 4 Wednesdays on September 9th, 16th, 23rd, and 30th from 3:45 PM – 6:00 PM.
🎨 Who It’s For: Creative explorers ages 7–13 who want to level up their art, design, storytelling and animation skills.
✏️ What’s Included: All traditional art supplies, a juicebox and light snack are provided for each session—just bring your imagination!
🏆 The Setting: A specialized, small-group environment (max 12 students) led by an award-winning industry veteran at Upchuckle Education in Barrie.
