Making a stop motion-animated puppet movie is an incredibly exhausting way of expression. It requires guts to embark on a project that will take years to create, frame by frame, something that will make the spectators sharpen their eyes to the fullest.

Niki Lindroth von Bahr, a true magician of movement in animation, who introduces her characters to dances (e.g. in the musical Burden) will guide the workshop participants through the secrets of the animator work.

The two-day animation workshops are aimed at young animators with basic skills in stop-motion animation. For two days, participants will work on body movement, posing dolls and working with props in a well-equipped animated film studio.
