How long have cartoons been around? Which animation techniques are used in film and how do they function? During a guided tour through the Permanent Exhibition Film, young visitors are given the answers to these and countless other questions related to cartoons and animation techniques.
Following the tour, the children develop their own script for a short cartoon and turn it into a film. They create it frame by frame using a two-dimensional technique called cutout animation, as well as a light box and a digital video camera. The birthday child will be sent a DVD with his/her cartoon per post.

The History of German Film: A Tour through the Museum
Guided Tour for Students
Costumes and props, photos, scripts, sketches and outlines of decorations and models, cameras and footage from films – film history is brought to life by a wide range of different objects in the Permanent Exhibition Film. In ten rooms, the Museum tells of the beginnings of German cinema, of early stars and classics (e.g., DAS CABINET DES DR. CALIGARI and METROPOLIS), of the golden era of German cinema during the Weimar Republic, and its misuse under National Socialism. The exhibition depicts the situation of German filmmakers and artists living in exile, and on their return after the war. A central theme of the exhibition is Marlene Dietrich’s estate.
