I attended an awesome conference session at the Integrated Arts Conference in Plymouth, NH held by Timm Judas and he explained how to make a Lenticular animation and his way was just....easier.
So here's how it works: Students need to create two images that are on the same size paper but VERY different (that way the transformation is the best). Cutting and gluing needs to be pretty precise, so this is best done with students in grade 5 or above, I think (unless you are working in small groups or one-on-one).
In the video I made, I show you how to make simple Lenticular Animations at home. I'm making two pieces for a display I'll be using at the PTA Math and Science fair I'm attending on Monday night. I'm Integrating art with Science and my Lenticular animations are "One Fish, Two Fish" and "Red Fish, Blue Fish."
Lenticular animation is fun and really has a great "WOW!" factor--even grown-ups are wondering how it's done! So watch my Educreations video and try it out--and please send me an email or post below letting me know how your Lenticular design came out--I love to see what people are creating!
ENJOY!
There is a new paper product available to make Lenticular art from a kit. It's made by AccordionCraft and sold through the Nasco and TriArco Catalogs and websites. This amazing new product works great with all mediums.
ReplyDeleteHI Artgal! Thank you for letting me know about this resource! I hadn't seen it before. I found a link for anyone else who is interested: https://www.enasco.com/product/9737884
DeleteThey have single kits, classroom packs and refill kits available. While I have never tried them myself, they look like they'd make a nice quality piece of art. Thanks for stopping by!
