DESCRIPTION

Young 2D & 3D Creators (Grades 3-5) will dive into an enchanting world where art, animation, and technology merge seamlessly.

This camp is fully accredited by the Accrediting Commission for Schools, Western Association of Schools and Colleges (ACS WASC).

No prior experience in art, design, or computing is necessary – just your imagination and enthusiasm!

Fun outdoor and indoor activities and plays are part of the camp experience.

Embark on an Exciting Artistic Journey: This camp introduces students to the enchanting realm of digital art through Holographic AR. Imagine creating art that not only exists on a screen but also comes alive in the space around you! They will be designing their own characters and environments, bringing them to life within the captivating framework of augmented reality. Imagine creating a character or an environment that interacts with the real world in real-time!

Exploring Animation with Adobe Character Animator: The campers will delve into the captivating world of digital animation. Using Adobe Character Animator, they will learn to animate characters in a way that responds to their own movements and expressions, creating a playful and interactive experience.

Venturing into 3D Design: The adventure continues as students explore the realm of 3D design. Leveraging popular characters from games like Minecraft and Roblox, as well as other beloved figures, students will learn how to design, animate, and bring these characters to life in a 3D holographic space. They'll rig and animate 3D  characters, from cartoon figures to human models, creating dynamic, engaging, and interactive art, utilizing tools like iHuman, Adobe Mixamo, and/or blender, etc.Utilizing tools like iHuman, Adobe Mixamo, and Blender, they will create and manipulate 3D objects and environments, gaining insights into the world of digital creativity and design.

Teleport into their Animated Worlds using Holographic AR: This experience takes animation beyond conventional boundaries, where students will step into their animated world and and their stories leap off the screen. Utilizing Holographic AR technology, they'll bring their 2D & 3D animations to life in an enchanting, interactive space. Imagine stepping right into their own animated universes, teaming up with characters they've created, and facing off against dynamic, digital villains. This magical experience encourages students to actively participate in their narratives, making strategic decisions in a vivid, real-time environment. It's not just animation—it's a vibrant fusion of gaming, storytelling, and innovative technology, cultivating skills in design, creativity, and problem-solving. This is where imagination meets reality, transforming their passion for animation into tangible skills in a mesmerizing, hands-on adventure.

Storytelling in 2D & 3D Animation: students will dive into the art of storytelling techniques and animation. They'll tackle interactive narrative challenges and engage in creative design tasks, enriching their storytelling skills and enhancing their animated creations. This hands-on experience will not only develop their understanding of animation but also foster their ability to weave compelling stories within their artistic projects.

Encouraging Collaboration and Discovery: Guided by experienced instructors, campers will collaborate, exchange ideas, and form bonds. This journey is about more than just acquiring new skills; it's about joining a community of imaginative young creators, all while exploring the realms of digital and AR art.
