Dina Chehab


Welcome to FOODIO!


We will do a series of fun activities all about food. You will learn where your favorite dish comes from, why it’s important, and what it means to you. You’ll make model ingredients using craft materials, and in the end, you’ll create a stop-motion video that shows how to make your dish while telling us the special story behind it.

We’ll be doing a series of fun activities all about food. You’ll learn where your favorite dish comes from, why it’s important, and what it means to you. You’ll create model ingredients using craft materials, and in the end, you’ll make a stop-motion video that shows how to make your dish and tells its special story.

For your project, you’ll be making an animation of your important food’s recipe. To get started, watch video 1, video 2, and video 3 . As you watch, think about:

  • What materials the animator used to show the food

  • How the ingredients change or move during the animation

  • How the video is filmed: the timing, framing, lighting, and movement

Activity for this session: Post-it Play

In this activity, you're going to get a small taste of the world of animation. Using very simple materials-- post-its and pencil-- you can create a moving image!
