'My World' animation workshop with Studio Gilay

Discover the world of animation in this hands-on workshop for kids led by Studio Gilay.

Taking inspiration from the three exhibitions currently on display at the Museum of Sydney, this fun and dynamic workshop invites participants to explore themes of place and Country within the digital realm.

Learn how to digitally illustrate, colour and animate using 2D and 3D techniques in Procreate and discover the basic principles of animation and augmented reality (AR) technology. The workshop is designed to promote the intersection between art and place through storytelling and inspire curiosity in the world.
