Creating a thrilling, detective, mystical, emotional, fantastical, or any other kind of animated film is both the goal and the adventure of this course.

Under the guidance of the course mentor, teenagers will develop a storyline, create a storyboard, voice the characters, and then produce their own short film using various media formats: collage, drawing, video, and photography.

The process will include storytelling techniques as well as diverse artistic approaches. Participants will gain basic knowledge of animation and practice its key stages hands-on.

Course outcome: a premiere screening of the animated film created by the participants.

Location: Atelier of the Center for Contemporary Culture Tselinny, 59 Masanchi St., Almaty.
