She’s seen first-hand how animation builds confidence\, creativity and real-world skills — and she can’t wait to pass that on. \nWhat to bring \n📱 Your smartphone (fully charged!) \n♻️ Recycled materials for models and sets — get creative with what you have at home \n✅ A commitment to attend all six sessions \nReady to make your first film? \nSpaces are limited — book your place at before they go! 🚀 \nWhat do I need to know? \n\nWho is The Basement for?\nThe Basement isn’t just another youth centre – it’s the space you asked for\, designed by you\, built for you.
