Kanya Lyons
Anda Mandala
Come watch animated mandalas and make one of your own. Anda Mandala
marries the accessibility and affordability of new digital technology
with old-school, hands-on, stop motion techniques. Stop motion creates
the illusion of movement by taking pictures at intervals in time as
objects change position in space. Sound complicated? It's really very
simple, even my 4 year-old can do it. The animations created here will
be edited together with an original musical score to produce a short
video that will be screened publicly.
