Stop-motion animation is an intricate art form that requires planning, patience, and tons of creativity. No one knows this better than Mab and Becho, two Argentinian directors and animators who bring all kinds of productions to fruition alongside a skilled creative team under the name Can Can Club. Specializing in stop-motion animation, they've crafted a distinctive style that has opened up a world of opportunities for them in the field of advertising and multimedia content production.
In this course, join them to learn the basic principles of clay animation, whether you're just getting started with Dragonframe or want to perfect your claymation techniques.

Start by getting to know Becho and Mab as they give you a tour of their influences and some of their personal projects, from their earliest endeavors to their most recent ones, like Can Can Club.
Build a solid foundation before you start animating by creating a functional workspace, both analog and digital. Mab and Becho guide you as you put together your set and install the software you need to bring your animations to life, revealing their top tips to help you make the most of these resources.
Then, it's time for action. Tackle some hands-on animation exercises to learn to add a sense of weight to your objects, making them bounce, morph, and move with a life of their own. Begin by working in a 2D environment first, and then dive deep into 3D animation to take your skills to the next level.
Sit back and watch what you've created from scratch—a dynamic animation brimming with life and movement.

Create a short, animated video with claymation techniques, combining the flexibility of clay with the power of stop-motion.
Animators, designers, character creators, and anyone interested in exploring the world of clay animation.
Basic knowledge and prior experience with animation is recommended but not essential.
To create your animations, you need clay, a computer with Dragonframe, and a camera that is compatible with the software.

Dragonframe is a professional stop motion animation software that lets you capture, edit, and optimize frames, control cameras, and manage animated sequences with precision—perfect for frame-by-frame animation projects.
Yes, the course is designed for people with basic animation knowledge who want to dive deeper into advanced Dragonframe and stop motion animation techniques and tools.
You’ll need a computer with Dragonframe installed, a compatible camera, a keypad or numeric keyboard, animation materials like clay, and space to set up your animation stage.
You’ll learn how to adjust settings like aperture, ISO, shutter speed, and white balance, plus how to use the densitometer and histogram to fine-tune exposure and image quality in your animations.
The keypad lets you control key actions like capturing frames, navigating between images, deleting frames, and toggling views, making your stop motion workflow smoother.
Onion Skin and visual guides help you line up images with the previous frame, improve continuity, and plan precise movements—boosting the flow and consistency of your animation.
You can use features like cutting, deleting, and hiding frames right in the software, allowing you to clean up and perfect your animation sequence without disrupting your project’s flow.
