My Project

My students bubble with creativity and dream big. Many hope to work in Florida's thriving animation industry one day. They get absolutely thrilled when creating stories and characters from their imagination.

The iPad and protective case will let them dive into real claymation animation.

They'll use the iPad's camera to capture each movement of their clay characters, then transform these photos into polished animations using professional software. They'll add storylines, transitions, and titles to create complete short films.

Living near Florida's famous theme parks and animation studios makes this project especially meaningful. Learning claymation gives my students hands-on experience with professional animation techniques, preparing them for potential future careers in our local entertainment industry.
