abingdon.org.uk/prep 11 ART Another workshop took the pupils to Stowe School for an exciting day of animation! After pastries, and a tour of the art rooms and gallery, they were shown how to create their own group animations. Crafting sets, backdrops and storyboard ideas, pupils used plasticine to manipulate characters. Our film makers, directors and animators used iPads and specialist lighting techniques to create fantastic films. Thank you to Stowe School for a wonderful day!
