HAND-MADE ANIMATION STUDIO and ANIMATION WORKSHOPS

Studio is located in the House K-18. It's provincial: all citizens of Satakunta can use it by the same 
condition. So anyone can do his/her own hand-made animation film but not a computer-animation.

Equipment of the studio: animation desk with glass desk top, stroke desks, lightning gears, 
DV-cameras, works stations for editing and picture processing. However, there isn´t 2D of 3D 
computer animation facilities. Even one 16mm film camera exists. Therefore in demand we have ability for professional animation production with 16mm film.

Studio is usable for courses and it can also serve as training unit of other moving pictures.

production

The animation studio is available for professional usage. In that case SFC acts like a producer or studio is just rented. We ask you carry your own materials when needed. You can transfer your own film material to video or digital form for cutting and other after works like color determination, sound works etc.

Courses and workshops for several purposes

Animation studio has served mainly for animation workshops for children, handicapped and so on. Short courses are organised to art teachers, visual artists and to children of nursery schools etc. Once equipment and premises are prepared a course is easy to dredge up for different needs and ideas.

 Six-month animation training course was held 31.01. - 07.07.2000 for SAMK
Finished work exhibition of an animation course was organised in the cellar of the culture house, Annankatu 6, in September 2000.

One product of the course, "Emilia and the Magic Hat" by Tiina Heininen was selected to the Kettupäivät (Finnish for "Fox Days") 2000 series and the Oulu International Children's Film Festival.
