A stop-motion animation film created by S1 pupils at Lornshill Academy will be premiered this week as part of a new exhibition.
The film tells the story of the history of glass in Alloa and has been painstakingly filmed using drawings in sand. Video artist Bryony Day, has supported the pupils as part of the Imagine Alloa project. The S1 pupils narrate the story.
The stop-frame filming technique was made famous by stop-motion master Ray Harryhausen and has been seen more recently on the big screen with Wallace and Gromit and Tim Burton's Corpse Bride.
The film will be shown on Wednesday evening 10th March as part of an exhibition of art, design and technology, celebrating the work of Lornshill's pupils, past and present.
The exhibition will be held in The Hub from 7-9pm and all will be made welcome.
The exhibition will be of both expressive and design art work from S1 - S6 and include some 3D work and photography.
Pupils from the school's technical department will also be selling clocks, photoframes and other items that they have crafted using the school's new laser cutter.
400 years of glassmaking in Scotland is being celebrated in 2010.The OI glass factory is the oldest glassworks in Europe still operating on its original site, while Alloa's glass cone is the only one left in Scotland.
