Animation Lab Conversion:
We have upgraded our labs from iStop Motion and 3-Chip video cameras to Canon Rebels and Dragon Stop Motion capture software. If you have not been introduced to this new system please arrange for a training with the lab aides because the production process is completely different. If you encounter any technical difficulties please notify us so we can provide you with better support.
If you will be using charcoal for DOL:
Please make sure to cover any surfaces that will come into contact with your charcoal drawings in plastic wrap, which is provided in the room. As a general rule charcoal is not allowed in the labs, and if you will be using this medium in the future you must get approval from animation staff, and only use the sand stand in the Com building.
