About

We are a stop motion animation festival that will take place is San Jose, California, over the weekend of March 2nd and 3rd in 2024. We decided to do a festival because we love stop motion and want more people to learn about it. Over the two days of the festival we will get together to watch films, talk to directors, and maybe even try some of the techniques that professional animators use in their films.
