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
