Each Wednesday during Holiday Time Sparky will open the doors for our Film and Animation Holiday Fun Club for Children with Autism, ADHD and SEN.

The session will include Stop-motion animation, Editing, Film and Performance, art, crafts, gaming and much much more in a mixed bag for those young ones who would like to express themselves creatively.

The session is based at our Studio in Chesterfield and is for a maximum of 8 children between the ages of 9 and 16 years. 2hr or 4hr sessions available. 10:00am to 12pm OR 10:00am to 2:00pm (bring a packed lunch for the 4hr session)

The cost is £32/£64pp. If you are interested and not already known to the studio please contact the Studio via email ginger@sparkyink.co.uk. as you my need a pre-visit. all attendees will have to complete a Pre-registration form.

Tickets are not valid unless confirmed with the Studio.

Due to Covid the Studio has the right to cancel the session at short notice.

Each session Children have the chance to work as group or on a solo project using industry standard stop motion animation software, editing and special FX software.

We use DSLR camera’s and i-pads and lots of other gadgets and gizmo’s which make Animation fun.

Children can create their own little stop-motion animation to view on Youtube or be part of a shared filming project. We also dabble into other Media too such as Art and prop making, Green screening, filming and editing.

Please note the sessions are on the second floor so there are stairs. We sadly have no disabled access available at the moment.

Frequently asked questions

Does a Parent or Carer have to stay?

A parent or Carer should stay for at least the first 15minutes for children who have not attended before. After this parents and carer's will be able to leave the child with us. Parents need to sign in when arriving and sign out their child upon collection.

My Child is able to come up alone & meet me outside after the session, is this ok?

We understand that some children have more independent skills than others and for parents and carers who are confident their child will be alright to arrive and leave alone, then the Studio will require a written and signed consent form to action this.

Do I need to complete any forms for my child to take part?

Yes. The Studio will send you a form that needs to be completed and emailed back to the Studio prior to the event. Where photographs of the form have been sent the Studio will require the original on the first time attending.
