Illustrators Elwood H. Smith and Elizabeth Buttler, and animator Brian Hoard will present Moving Pictures! The Art of Animation, an animation workshop, at Norman Rockwell Museum on Saturday, April 30, from 1 to 4 p.m. Join Smith and Hoard for a look at their process of bringing such animated shorts as Mondo Luigi and The Amazing Elwood, currently on view in the Museum’s Elwood’s World exhibition, to life. Following the presentation, illustrator/animator Elizabeth Buttler will take visitors through the process of creating moving pictures with traditional animation techniques–from the creation of flip books to the use of a zoetrope. The afternoon program is free with regular Museum admission.
