The Kingston Canadian Film Festival, Coach Canada and the National Film Board of Canada are thrilled to offer you and your family the chance to visit the National Film Board of Canada in downtown Toronto!

You and up to 3 children will travel to Toronto via coach bus to participate in a series of animation workshops facilitated by National Film Board of Canada professionals at their state-of-the-art studio and education centre, Mediatheque in downtown Toronto! From script to storyboard, to shooting scenes using the same tools as professional animators, children act as guest animators and learn about all of the various steps in the production process. From inception to finished product, children create their own characters, story and finished product all in a few hours!

The best part is that it’s FREE!
