Stop Action Animation is one of Box of Light's most popular classes. It is an extremely 'hands-on' class that mixes art, film, and computers.

Rand Whipple, from Box of Light Digital Art Studio, will show you how to make the inanimate world come to life as clay, paper, paint, and even bottle tops get up and move across the landscape you create. You'll create wonderful, animated movies, add sound, credits and, in the end, your film will live online on the studio's website.

Move over Tim Burton, there are some new filmmakers in town.
