ANIMATION FILM [motion picture]
Series: MCIS film collection
Number of pages: 16
Description: We follow three young students as they work together making Super 8 animated movies. They demonstrate how to use various materials including pen and ink, cutouts, finger paints, sound and clay - then go on to show how to achieve such cinematic effects as pixillation, while the film uses some of its own. We watch the entire process from set-up of equipment to finished movies, and two examples of the children's work ("Trapped" and "A Giant Leap for Mankind: A Step Too Far For Voodzpar"). The film treats its subject in a bright, fun manner with basic demonstrations set to a lively music track. Award winner: American Film Festival and Columbus Film Festival.
