Workshops

The animation festival CINANIMA has an educational service for schools in which I have been lucky enough to work with since 2023. The result of this project, Crianças Primeiro (meaning Children First), is a short film made by a class of 3rd and 4th graders. My job is to help the students reach their goals with the film.

The workshops in this section were made during the festival Festa Mundial da Animação organized by Casa da Animação (a portuguese association focused on promoting the animation art in Portugal). In 2023, I was lucky to be invited along side my colleague Ema Lavrador to create 1 hour workshops for children between the ages of 2 and 15 years old. In the following year, we were invited back to be the teachers in 2 workshops: one for families and the other one for elders.
