Hands-on workshops will accompany the Family Program in Vancouver, Richmond, Prince George, Yellowknife, Winnipeg, Toronto, Montreal, Charlottetown and Whitehorse. These workshops will demonstrate the basics of animation and give you the chance to make your own short animated film!
Workshops will be presented by Reel 2 Real, Yukon Arts Centre, Western Arctic Moving Pictures Film Society, Freeze Frame Media Arts Centre for Young People, the NFB Mediatheque and CineRobotheque, and Island Media Arts Coop.
Please visit the schedule of events for dates and times.
