Write it, shoot it, watch it back. Be the scriptwriter, director and animator of your own LEGO movie — sketch out a short story, then bring it to life one frame at a time, with brick-built sets and a cast of minifigures. We can even email you the finished film to show off at home.

LEGO Animation: Stop Motion is a hands-on introduction to filmmaking for kids aged 8 and up. Along the way your child learns how a story becomes a shot list, why patience and tiny movements make motion look smooth, and how framing, lighting and timing change the way a scene feels — the same craft behind the LEGO movies they already love. No experience needed; just an idea and a willingness to do it take by take. Our own senior robotics students guide every step.

And it's for a great cause. BotBuilders is a not-for-profit youth robotics team based in Brisbane. Every ticket goes straight back into the team — funding competition entries, equipment, and free STEM outreach to schools across Brisbane — so a few brilliant hours for your kid also helps power the next generation of young engineers.
