The workshop is based on the fast-paced comedy-horror extravaganza Scream Street, which returns to CBBC this October. The hilarious gross-out stop-motion comedy follows the adventures of Luke Watson, a regular teenager apart from the werewolf gene! Voiced by Tyger Drew-Honey, who plays Luke, with John Thomson, Debra Stephenson, Claire Skinner, Rasmus Hardiker, Tala Gouveia, and Jim Howick playing the residents of the extremely spooky Scream Street.

Each one-hour session allows 24 participants to work in groups of 4, who, after watching some animated clips for inspiration, will get to model some monsters for Scream Street and then animate them to create their very own stop-motion 10 second films. The animations produced will be uploaded to the Animation Nation YouTube channel.

All equipment and materials are provided. Suitable for 8-16-years.
