BrickFlicks Academy
Explore your creativity through stop motion animation
We’re an online platform where budding animators (age 8+) can learn the basics of stop motion animation, develop their skills and join a community of like-minded movie makers.
We’re here to foster your child’s creativity by not only teaching them the basics of stop motion animation but also helping them build other valuable skills that relate to STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art & Maths).
BrickFlicks inspires kids to use their mobile devices to create rather than consume so that screen time is creative rather than passive.
BrickFlicks combines digital skills (using the app, framing, FPS), creative crafts (set building using paper, cards and other materials) and storytelling skills to allow your child’s imagination to come to life.
Students of BrickFlicks Academy feel a real sense of achievement when they learn to make a short animation following the tutorials.

BrickFlicks Academy is a safe, fun place for young animators 8 yrs+ to learn, share, discover and explore their creativity using stop motion animation.
We believe in using materials and technology that can be found around the home and all of our courses and workshops use just a mobile device, a free app and simple materials you have close at hand.
We aim to make great animations using simple practices.
In the Academy, you will find an ever-growing number of self-guided courses where you can build your animation skills with practical & easy to follow video tutorials.
The courses include tons of hands-on activities that engage and inspire. There are monthly competitions to enter and direct feedback from the BrickFlicks animators on how to improve your skills.
Plus, members get access to live webinars and discounts on all our online camps and workshops.
