Not an easy thing to do, animation can take years to make. But many children who came along to the Spring Fling at Queens Park Parish Church on the 17th March took part in animation workshops led by local animator Jim Stirk of Red kite Animation studios in Edinburgh. The kids had only 1½ hrs to make cut-out animatable puppets and use computers and cameras to animate short films. They did great and their films are now on Red Kite’s workshop website for all to see for ever!! Well done film makers!

They are brilliant! I think my favourite is the robot and the boomerang explosive device. I shall also remember not to play in Daddy’s lab – the mind boggles.
Cute, but unrelentingly violent. Somebody’s been playing a lot of video games…
