This animation clip was made as part of the #BeACreativeProducer project.

See this clip in its final context in Part 2 Scene 2 Why Is Being Creative Important.

This resource shares the making and animating of a character we named “Bob”, who helps demonstrate that being creative can help us tackle challenges in all areas of our life. This method of animation combined making skills in the physical world, with green screen animation. The making of Bob himself took a little time, consisting of a wire frame covered by fabric, but the animation itself was fairly simple.

Exploring Primary Colours and Progressing from Powder Paint to Gouache and Acrylic

Mastering colour mixing

This resource is based on methods shared during an AccessArt InSET session for primary school teachers at New Hall School, Chelmsford, to ultimately enable their pupils to develop colour skills. Teachers explored using their intuition and experience to mix primary colours, creating coloured swatches that matched the colours of spring flowers, whilst comparing painting mediums.
