Class four watched the DVD Flushed Away last week. We thought carefully about how the characters had been made in preparation for making our own animations. We then gathered all the equipment we would need to make our own flushed away slug!
One of the special features of the DVD was a step by step guide from one of the animators from the movie. He showed us how to roll out the plastecine in certain shapes and how to use various tools to get different textures on the plastecine.
We were surprised that it wasn't actually as easy as it looked!!
He also showed us how to use cocktail sticks in a very clever way to construct part of the model slug.
I think you'll agree we did a pretty good job!!
We are now going to get in groups and plan our own animations around our space topic. Watch this space...for some slug aliens!!
