EDUCATION
& WORKSHOPS
FF have always run workshops and residencies as an integral part of the yearly programme. They are inextricably connected to and inspire and inform our artistic output.
The focus for participants is always on their own creativity and imagination and the creative process, not the 'masterclass' approach.
Residencies have lasted anything up to 3 weeks ; a workshop can be a mere 2 hours.
There
are two loose categories that this area of work covers
These might be sculptural
exhibits which can be animated via a myriad of different methods; puppets
which are worn as costumes or manipulated by an external operative; or
walk-through environments.
This might be devising
a short film sequence which is to be interacted with; building
model sets and gadgetry; rolling
scenery devices; 2D and 3D makeup; live
performance animation (pixillation); claymation;
2D drawing and painting, and many more
techniques and examples.
In
the following pages we hope to give you a glimpse into what you might
expect if you were to attend one of our workshops.
