As part of the SUPERTOON Festival of Animation and Comics, this four-day workshop transforms Šibenik into a meeting point of urban expression and creative technology! Designed for participants aged 14 and up, including high school and university students, this dynamic and interactive workshop guides attendees through the process of creating an animated film using street art techniques, with a special focus on stencil art – a popular form of expression in the world of urban creativity.
Participants will learn the basics of street art history, explore different approaches and styles, and gradually master the process of creating their own stencils – from using pre-made sketches to developing and executing completely original ideas. Once the stencils are created and applied to the wall, each phase will be photographed frame by frame, forming the building blocks of the final animation. This process will be repeated until the full animation is complete. Only the last frame will remain on the wall, while the animated film will live on in the digital world.
Each individual visual will become part of a larger whole: photographed frame by frame, the artworks will be stitched together into a collaborative stop-motion film – a dynamic group art piece that blends individual expression into one moving story.
The workshop combines comic-style storytelling, urban aesthetics, and animation techniques, offering participants a fresh and engaging way to express themselves and collaborate. In addition to technical and artistic skills, the focus is on teamwork, creative thinking, and personal interpretation of themes.
The workshop is limited to a maximum of 10 participants per day, so advance registration is required via email: radionica@supertoonfestival.com
Whether you’re already experienced in animation and street art or just curious to try something new, this workshop offers a chance to learn, experiment, and become part of an original collective project.
