Where we can find the essence of cinematic illusion when we look into everyday life, and what happens
when we use everyday situations, objects, spaces and actions as cinematographic mechanisms?
During the course we will use everyday objects and actions, in order to cause, activate and reveal narra-
tives and understandings of how we perceive the moving image illusions.

Topics:

• The prehistory of Cinema (precinematic inventions)
• Introduction to Non Stop Stop Motion and the art of documenting cinematic illusion
• Introduction to fast anim. techniques (Scanimation, Pixilation, Manual Collage Animation, Strob illusions, etc.)

• Tricks of Budget Cinema production and camera techniques
• Learning how to build Laterna Magica projectors with everyday materials
• Introduction to the contemporary Expanded Cinema and performative animation
