About Art Class x Animation
The MagicaLoop platform is an online resource for enjoying and learning about animation. We invite teachers, children and students to use this resource for school activities. The background information provided on this website will enrich your experience of the animation.
About This Resource
MagicaLoop is a digital-era tool for youth art education based on the Phenakistiscope optical device invented in the 19th century. The goal of this resource is to help you understand how animation works and discover the enjoyment of animating drawings and shapes. We encourage you to use this tool for educational activities. This resource was developed as part of the TOKYO Smart Culture Project from the Tokyo Metropolitan Foundation for History and Culture.

- School network settings sometimes restrict internet access to specified website domains. When using MagicaLoop for classroom and other educational activities, please check network and device settings to enable online access to MagicaLoop. We recommend that you test connectivity for the environment (devices and classroom) that you’ll be using in advance.
