Arrowmont School of Art and Craft

 Tiny Circus traveled to Gatlinburg, TN, land of swimming holes and bears, to teach an animation class at the Arrowmont school.  Class participants began by illustrating an common idiom (a stitch in time saves nine) to learn various animating processes

Next, the class turned to a more familiar topic and began to created an animated bear trap.

 Here, animating a chair lift behind a scene of Gatlinburg. 

 Creating a cardboard bear trap, spray painted gold, of course. 

It was a great week with many trips to swim and some late-night animating with a corn-dog.  We'll be back soon.  Check our youtube page for the final version of the animation.
