Description:

Gizmo Creators will step into the role of filmmaker, animator, designer, and engineer. This hands-on studio experience blends storytelling and mechanics as students bring their ideas to life — one frame at a time. Click HERE to see a FUN example from Gizmo Summer Camp!

Creators will:

  • Dream up an original story and create a detailed storyboard

  • Design characters, props, and sets with access to 3D printing tools, digital art components, and an abundance of found items and Lego components

  • Film and direct their own stop-motion movie using iPads and stop motion filming apps.

  • Learn the basics of video editing to polish their final production

  • Explore simple machines and motion

  • Use the laser cutter and 3D printer  to design and cut custom shapes and objects

  • Discover the magic of building automata--mechanical moving props

It’s imagination in motion, storytelling in action, and engineering you can see and touch.

Roll camera — and let’s make something amazing!
