WARWICK Art Gallery has invited talented film and animation artists to teach workshops for young people and adults during the school holidays.
DLux Media Arts are one of Australia’s longest running screen and media arts organisations and they have vast experience delivering workshops to gallery clients.
Andrew Burrell is an independent contemporary arts practitioner with strong history in real-time 3D and interactive audio installation and teaches workshops for DLux Media Arts.
Andrew’s first Warwick workshop will focus on recording material and manipulating footage by learning to slow it down, speed it up, pause and reverse it.
Students will also learn about animation including how to create an animation using an ipad.
DLux Media Arts will provide a full lab of equipment including iPads with relevant applications on them for participants to use.
Andrew’s second workshop will introduce Geocaching which is a real-world, outdoor treasure hunting game using GPS-enabled devices.
Using the ‘Aurasma’ augmented reality application, and the physical environment of the gallery and it’s collection as a playing field, participants will create an adventure game with a difference.
Placing virtual clues throughout the gallery and surrounds, they will make a treasure hunt that they can then invite other players to explore.
Phil Judd is a Brisbane based cartoon artist who specialises in teaching basic drawing concepts and enabling participants to create their own cartoon character.
Phil uses a step by step process to teach the basic concepts that are then used by the attendees to create their own original cartoon images.
Phil will offer two different cartoon drawing workshops for children aged six to 12 years and a more advanced class for participants aged 13 years and over.
The workshop program begins on Tuesday 22 September with a small fee to cover the cost of materials and equipment.
