@5pointfilm @amplifyingvoices

 

Get started:

1. Download the FREE Stop Motion Studio App

2. Watch some helpful tutorials

{Parents and Kids! Here’s a “how to” from an art teacher}

3. Decide if you want to work in 2D or 3D

3D Materials: Figures like legos or stuffed animals work well, clay is great, aluminum foil, tape and paper, food, branches, dirt, rocks, etc.!

2D Materials: All you need is paper!

An easy 2D “tripod” can be made with a chair, baking sheet (or any sturdy board or book) and weights like cans of food.

Prop your phone against a book to make an easy “tripod.”

4. Create a character(s), pick a setting, and make something happen! 30 second moment.

…what is a world you imagine? Who is there? What happens? How are you feeling about the world today?…
