The Japan Foundation organized a 3 day workshop on Animation from 26th to 28th February, 2012 at The Japan Foundation. The workshop was conducted by filmmaker, Maya Yonesho. The workshop was aimed towards creating animation in and about one's local settings. Participants at the workshop engaged in all aspects of animation production, from storyboard creation to filming and special effects, using unique techniques for shooting hand-drawn animation in a real-life setting. The finished product created will synchronize sound, speech and settings.
The participants were told to draw images that they associated with their city- buildings, food, transport, roads or other things quintessentially Delhi. After drawing their story board and then doing their sketches on small pieces of paper they took photographs of these against the background of what they had sketched. This workshop is part of Maya Yonesho's project called Daumenreise which has traveled to Taiwan, Norway, Croatia, Israel and Poland. The filmmaker would like to one day want to take this project to the moon.
