With simple cardboard boxes you can create a kinetic version of 'Rear Window'! Try it out in this workshop.

Aren't we all voyeurs who like to watch our neighbours from time to time? Ultimate example: Alfred Hitchcock's legendary classic Rear Window, in which we can spy on the occupants of an apartment complex together with James Stewart. And to be fair, such a building is the perfect setting for small and less small dramas. During this workshop, you can make up your own drama in a flat using a cardboard box! Add several flats together and you have the Kaboom 2024 version of Rear Window!

The aim of the workshop is to create a collaborative animated short film. Different teams work separately on their flats. What's going on inside? A cooking accident? A murder? A big fight? Alien struggling with the remote control of their television? A rabid dog wreaking havoc? Anyting goes! With cardboard boxes, characters and props, and learned animation techniques, the teams build their story. Bring each story together and you have a delightful doll's house full of drama!
