Minecraft. Surely you’ve heard of it! This day camp will allow your child to use Minecraft skins and worlds and their own attention to detail to create wallpaper and animation videos. Kids will learn the basics of 3D animation using Mine-imator, a popular and powerful 3D animation software. Your child will develop skills in art, technology and animation as they dream, develop and create their very own animated videos!

Minecraft Education with MakeCode for Windows
In this Mine-imator summer camp, kids learn how to produce animated YouTube-style videos with Minecraft art. We teach kids the basics of the 3D animation process: positioning 3D Minecraft art with a coordinate rose, positioning the camera, tweening, keyframing, shortcuts for keyframing, importing art, rendering videos to export, and video editing. In this Mine-imator camp, kids use Windows 10 laptops, Mine-imator software, and Animotica software to create multiple types of Minecraft 3D Animation videos.
Kids will be able to express their own creativity through art, animation, sound, and their passion for Minecraft. If your child already loves Minecraft and animated videos, they will love creating their very own animations with their own worlds and skins they bring from home using a complimentary USB drive they receive on the first day of camp. The Mine-imator wallpapers and videos created in this tech camp are saved on the same USB drive to share with friends or family on Windows and Mac computers.
Note: Campers do not upload videos to any video-sharing platform like YouTube during this camp. Instead, we provide instructions on how families can upload their projects to their home computer or to a video-sharing platform. When you save to the cloud, you can also use mobile devices to view videos or download wallpaper.
We pride ourselves on being able to develop kids from tech consumers into tech creators. Using the latest in STEAM technology, we spark creativity in your child.
