For the third time now, our international Stop Motion Animation Workshop is going to be organised in Hungary, from the 21 July until the 5 August, and it consists of two separate weeks of training: on the first week, it joins the HelloWood festival in Northern Hungary, adding some new interdisciplinary perspectives to the program, and on the second week, it continues in Budapest, at the Moholy-Nagy Univeristy of Arts and Design.
The professional objective of the workshop is to keep the heritage of stop motion animation alive by combining them with digital techniques such as digital production and post-production. The project aims to contribute in implementing more stop motion featured films especially in Central-Eastern European countries. The trainings will be led by international experts, with one of the bests, David Purves as well.
We are still calling for application animation students and professionals from different countries. I would like to ask your cooperation, it would be really helpful if you could promote or forward our call for participation with the e-flyer that is found in the attachment.
Thank you,
Best regards,
