Take your stop motion skills to the next level in our advanced class!  Campers who have taken our general Animation Camp twice previously are invited to work on honing acquired skills, learn more challenging techniques, and apply knowledge to longer and more story-driven projects.  Both content and grading criteria will be more challenging than the standard course and students will be working alongside and collaborating with fellow veteran animators.

This advanced camp is for students entering grades 6 through 12 who have taken our general Animation Camp twice before.

Up to 16 campers may register for the week-long camp. Camp will be held at FilmScene on the Ped Mall, located at 118 E. College in Iowa City.

All technology and supplies included. Each day includes stretching and snack breaks. Two snacks and lunches provided.

Campers can share their work at our Friday “end of camp” showcase, with their work appearing on the big screen. Campers will also have access to their work through Flipgrid to share with friends, family and save for themselves.

The Instructor:
 
This will be Jarrod DeRooi’s 9th summer teaching for FilmScene.  His interest in stop motion started in his youth, his early animations and movies all filmed on his prized Sony Handycam.  He is overjoyed to get to share his love for stop motion with young artists.  Jarrod formerly worked for the Iowa City Community School District but now spends his time outside of camp writing, drawing and running a small organic farm. 

Summer is Jarrod’s favorite time of year, and there is no place he would rather spend it than at Film Scene, working with the next generation of filmmakers!
