Last week I had the treat to teach Lego Animation at the Schulz Museum as part of their summer program for kids. We had 7 groups of kids who all produced over 1 min of animation each.
I was impressed how the young students experimented to achieve different effects and work hard to do the best they could using the limitations of the Lego’s.
The videos of the final work will be on-line in the next week or two.
CONGRATULATIONS to all the students!

Here is a video clip from a class that has all ready happened, the Cartoon Safari that started with some drumming. Due to working with Children the clip can not be embedded. So click on the text below.
