Animation ROCKS!

Categories:

Over the holidays, many of the Cubs enjoyed the new Chicken Run movie. Following this, we decided that we’d have a look at the process of making animated movies.

In week 1, the Cubs created their story boards in their Sixes. Working together, they Developed characters and a plot for their animation movies. They also assigned each other tasks for the following week. Some had to bring characters, some had to bring a vehicle. Others were in charge of scenery or staging.

All the important roles were allocated – Director, Producer, Stage Manager, Camera Operator…. and they were finally ready for week 2 – FILMING WEEK!

All the Cubs worked really hard to create some fantastic movies.

The Cubs said that whilst creating a story and an animated movie by yourself is easy, doing it in a team is actually 10x harder.

The Cubs did fantastically well to navigate this challenging team activity.

Here is the output of all their hard work… ENJOY!
