Students at Brykerwoods Elementary who participated in the Austin Film Festival after-school claymation workshop have been working hard on learning the ins-and-outs of stop-motion filmmaking.
Their projects have recently been completed and will be screened for parents and students at a morning assembly.
To see the Bryker Woods Elementary claymations online, visit: http://www.austinfilmfestival.com/new/brykerwoods
The program lasted 6 weeks, students meeting after school for two hours once a week, and is the first venture of the Young Filmmakers Program into Elementary School.
Stay tuned for more details on further claymation opportunities!
