Drop-In Direct Animation and Printmaking: with Westport Aquarium

Join us to create your own direct animation mini movie on 35mm film leader. Westport Aquarium will provide 2 historic 100 year old machines of the past to create a unique mini movie. Then hand crank and project your own film on a c. 100 year old 35 millimeter hand crank film projector. We will be using markers to draw directly on 3 feet or more of 35 mm film leader. In this method you can watch your film right away. You don’t need to wait to send the film off for development. Bring the whole family or a group of friends and splice your sections of film together into one longer film. All ages welcome!
