Healesville Primary School students learned stop motion animation

Eastern Regional Libraries were the recipients of a State Government grant offered to libraries in the bushfire affected areas. We used our grant to organise an animation workshop for Year 5 kids from Healesville Primary School.

Gregg Brown from Play Animation sent us a note with a link to the final results. The kids did an amazing job.

"The students seemed to have a lot of fun being free to explore the skills I passed on. The sound track was fun to make for them too."

Graphic Novel workshop with Nikki Greenberg

Do you want to create a graphic novel or a comic book? Do you have loads of ideas for your story, but not quite sure how to get started? Then this workshop is for you. Author and illustrator Nikki Greenberg will inspire you and give practical guidance on how to create your own comic book.

At age 15 Nikki Greenberg wrote The Digits series which sold over 380,000 copies. Since then she has published several novels for children but her real passion is comics and graphic novels. In 2007 she created a graphic novel adaptation of The Great Gatsby. Somehow she still finds time to work as a solicitor.

Where: Ringwood Library, Ringwood Street Mall, Ringwood
Cost: $10 payable prior to the workshop
