Evening for Educators: Animating Life: The Art, Science, and Wonder of LAIKA
A band of gurgling Boxtrolls.
THE BOXTROLLS ©2014, BOXTROLLS, LLC
Founded in 2005, LAIKA has grown to occupy a unique and distinctive place in American cinema by continuously expanding the boundaries of the 120-year-old technique of stop-motion animation. LAIKA is a community of storytellers, artists, inventors, technicians, and craftspeople from around the world, committed to fusing filmmaking’s state-of-the-art technologies with a handmade animation tradition as old as film itself. Dive into their creative process and make connections to your students’ learning during an evening with LAIKA educators and artists.
