“By creating ephemeral and permanent installations, how can graduating seniors leave their mark at Southside in a positive way?
We approached the idea of leaving one’s mark through three projects: Stop Motion Video Project and Installation, Video Portrait Project, and Ceramic Tile Installation.”
-Southside Occupational Academy High School Teacher Katie Radomski and Teaching Artist Andrea Slavik
RESEARCH
We studied select historical stop motion works by pioneer Eadweard Muybridge, various filmmakers from the National Film Board of Canada including Norman McLaren, and contemporary pop cultural examples from the music video genre such as The Roots and White Stripes.
This is an example of animation produced by White Stripes.


Our stop-motion video
Students were guided in the pre-production and production of their own stop motion animation videos where they worked on claymations and choreographed each other moving through the school’s architectural space.
