Vermont Animation Festival

You can’t stop this motion! The 10th annual Vermont Animation Festival at Vermont State University in Lyndon brings student film screenings, diverse workshops and industry talks to the Northeast Kingdom. Local animation artist and director Hayley Morris delivers a keynote address with an emphasis on mixed media and stop-motion, regaling attendees with anecdotes about how she creates visually captivating work for commercials, music videos and feature films through the use of handcrafted details, textures and storytelling. Inspired participants then try their hand at workshops on topics including analog and lip-sync animation, character sculpting, and storyboarding, plus a stop-motion class led by Morris.

These community event listings are sponsored by the WaterWheel Foundation, a project of the Vermont band Phish.
