 <\/p>\n

Depending on skills and interest, participants are organised into small groups. Each group works on specific field of production, such as directing, designing the film images, animation, image capture, film editing and sound and music design.[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text=”Preparations for the Workshop” use_theme_fonts=”yes” css=”.vc_custom_1754341033171{border-bottom-width: 2px !important;border-bottom-style: solid !important;border-color: #eaeaea !important;}”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1754341018379{margin-bottom: 24px !important;}”]If possible, the individual participants or groups develop ideas for a film a few days before the workshop. They can send me their scripts, sketches or storyboards in advance for review so that I can give specific feedback and respond to their approaches.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

At the beginning of the cut-out animation workshop, all ideas are discussed together on a storyboard. The best idea will be selected and produced.[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text=”Teamwork with Division of Labour” use_theme_fonts=”yes” css=”.vc_custom_1754341075891{border-bottom-width: 2px !important;border-bottom-style: solid !important;border-color: #eaeaea !important;}”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1754341150995{margin-bottom: 24px !important;}”]It would be best if the creators of the chosen idea were also the directors of the film. They give instructions to individual groups, e.g. to the designers on how to draw a scenery or to the animators on how to move the cut-out figures frame by frame.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I accompany the production team as a supervisor and provide advice to each participant.<\/p>\n
