Slow down. Get curious. Bring something to life.
In a world that moves too fast, stop motion animation asks you to do the opposite: slow right down, pay close attention, and watch something come to life one frame at a time.
This 4-week hands-on course, led by London-based Stop Motion Animator Vee Ladwa, is as much a creative reset as it is a technical skill-build.
Whether you're a total beginner or already have some experience, these sessions offer something rare — dedicated time and space to focus on one thing, with your hands, away from screens scrolling and to-do lists. Many people come to ANIMATIKZ looking for a new hobby; what they find is a genuinely healing practice. There's something deeply satisfying about the patience it demands, and the small, tangible progress you make frame by frame.
Over four sessions, you'll:
Learn the fundamentals of animation — the core principles that make stop motion work, and why it feels like magic
Storyboard & plan — turn a loose idea into a structured animation project, developing patience and intentionality along the way
Create your own animation — get hands-on with materials, characters, and objects, animating them frame by frame
Edit & finish — refine your work, add sound, and prepare your piece to share with pride
This studio time is great to experiment, practice, or just be in the process — no pressure, no rush.
Hopefully, by the end, you'll walk away with your own short stop-motion, new technical skills, and — for many people — a rediscovered sense of focus, patience, and playfulness that's easy to lose in everyday life. Whether you continue for personal projects, business marketing, or purely for the joy of it, this course is a chance to try something new and reconnect with the quiet satisfaction of making something with your hands.

Recent reviews of Stop Motion Animation Course

  • 5/5 from Manjit Bhail, attended Aug 2026: Vee is a superb teacher, very patient, professional and knowledgable about his craft and able to teach with expertise, clear instruction, encouragement and understanding of the learner's needs in a great environment and positive interaction. Was able to get learner to make stopmotion wire figures from scratch (getting them wrapped and covered in modelling clay with magnets on the soles of their feet) and then use cameras and software to animate them too in short video. Highly recommended course and teacher!
  • 5/5 from Miguel Dominguez, attended Nov 2025: Hi there, I found the classes very educational and interesting. Specifically direct to my own interest, needs and capacity. Regards
  • 5/5 from Khaled Alkandari, attended Nov 2025: I don’t has enough words to describe how great this session was. Vee is super nice, kind and thoughtful - you can also easily see how passionate he is about stop motion, which enriches the experience. I’d recommend this class to anyone who has a appreciation for this art but also those who may not be fully exposed to the film process, it’ll make you realize how much effort is put into this craft - and it’s beautiful.

Hi! I'm Vee Ladwa, an experienced Animator, Designer and Artist from London, UK. I have worked in the creative industry across a wide range of media for over 20 years! I've produced, directed and animated stop motion videos for Marvel/Disney, Hasbro and produced, directed and animated music videos for CLAPTONE ('Phantasy' and ‘Animal’) and illustrated comics and colouring books and just really enjoy the visual arts!
I'm enthusiastic about the explorative, creative and beneficial use of stop motion animation and introducing this art to those interested in creating their own, either for personal projects, marketing your business, or for your own personal wellbeing.
