Digital creativity



Workshop 0213 - Animated films, fully computer generated

Computer-generated animation films

With the CG animation workshop, students create the most fun stories quickly and easily.

The cg animation film-making workshop offers a great way to create. Making such a film can be done in several ways. Nowadays, many animation films are made with a new technique. In a so-called computer-generated animation film (CG animation film for short), a complete film is made with the help of computers. Both the design part and the motion process are done digitally. Well-known examples include 'Frozen', 'Cars', 'Minions', 'Rio' and 'Ice age'. This technique is also used in computer games such as "Minecraft".

In this workshop, students will work in groups to create a CG animation film using a tablet or iPad. Using different phases in a story, they will learn to tell a story. They can use ready-made figures and backgrounds, but they can also draw digitally themselves. In this way, their creativity is optimally stimulated. They also record the voices of the characters to create a kind of role-play between the different pupils.

Key objectives
Students learn to use pictures to communicate. This allows them to translate subjects as they perceive them through a digital tool. They gain some knowledge about, and appreciation for, aspects of their environment. They also acquire photographic skills and techniques in an exploratory phase. They also learn to handle new media, such as cameras. The pupils learn to look differently at their environment as well as to improve their sensory perception. (core objectives 54 and 55)
