Eyebeam is teaming up with Mozilla to bring you 

Moving <img> Storytelling

 -- a workshop for teens that explores animation, GIFs, and storyboarding! - Create your own comic strip or animated film using open-source technology. - Learn how to make GIFs with special effects. - Discover the new Meemoo platform, which enables instant app-hacking right in your browser. GIFs are animated images that work in all web browers. Participants will learn how to create them, and experiment with moving-image techniques such as stop-motion animation (frame-by-frame movement), rotoscoping (image tracing), and pixilation (stop-motion with live actors). Experiment with special types of GIFs including cinegraphs (animations with partial movement) and wiggles (pseudo-3D images). Participants should plan on attending each day of the workshop. The week will conclude with a pizza party and demonstration of everyone's work. Bring your parents and friends!
