1- WORKSHOP: On your wall! Video mapping with Tagtool is cool!
This workshop on the use of the Tagtool application offers an incursion into the fascinating world of video mapping! …The what? Video mapping is a technique for projecting moving images onto objects, or adorning a building or wall with animated light murals!
With the free Tagtool vector animation app, youngsters will learn how to animate characters, shapes and objects, and project them onto large surfaces to create impressive and unique videos. The application’s simplicity fosters the emergence of creativity and enables the creation of satisfying and impressive animations in a short timespan.
Weather permitting, the works will be presented outdoors in the evening! (Popcorn provided!)
The On your wall! workshop is an opportunity for youngsters to learn how to animate their own images to create universes and stories that are as eccentric and unique as them!
2- WORKSHOP: Quiet on set! It’s possible to make animated films with a tablet!
The Quiet on set! workshop is a unique opportunity to discover how an animated film is made! Designed to spark curiosity, it is part of a process of education and reflection on the image. By taking part in all the stages involved in making a short film – from script creation to set design and filming – young people will experiment with a variety of media, including drawing, photography and writing. In addition to developing creativity, the workshop will highlight an important feature of the film world: teamwork! Youngsters will have the opportunity to collaborate and share their ideas with other participants.
Using an electronic tablet and Cateater’s free Stop Motion application, children can easily create animated films frame by frame, in just a few simple steps. Quiet on set! is an enriching experience for young people who want to discover the world of animated film and invent stories in pictures.
