Easter Workshop for Southwark Gifted and Talented at the Southwark City Learning Centre Animation Workshop

Quirky Pictures led a workshop for Southwark Gifted and Talented at Southwark City Learning Centre. The stop motion film was made over a  period of four days during the Easter Break. Our young and enthusiastic animators  used “Gullivers Travels” as inspiration to create a short story. They then created  and animated puppets made of  photographs, using green screen techniques  and pixilation
