NEXT WORKSHOP - Outside Animation with Francisco Lourenço .art

📍Largo Residencias

By mixing cutout (2D animation) with the real world (stop-motion) we can explore meaningful relations between different types of images

The moving image doesn’t need to be bound to a two-dimensional plane, neither does it need to be solely a three-dimensional medium. Animation, with its variety of techniques, gives us the opportunity to break the boundaries between dimensions. By mixing cutout (2D animation) with the real world (stop-motion) we can explore and create meaningful relations between different types of images, we can play with perspective and perception of scale. Through the lens of animation we can explore new ways of thinking about the public space and the spaces we live in.
In this workshop every participant, working alone or as a group, will create their own animations mixing cutout-animation and stop-motion, while learning about animation’s most important principles: acceleration, deceleration, timing, spacing, anticipation, overshoot and persistence of vision.

About the artist:
Francisco Lourenço is an artist who lives and works in Lisbon. Studied Painting but has always been working with moving image as an artist, animator, in visual effects and as a motion designer in cinema and advertisement. Through narratives derived from chance, their videos isolate moments of cosmic lucidity, depicting environments populated by characters uncertain of their place. In their work there is a deep appreciation for the inherent humor and emotion of the natural world.
