Play Animation
Students use the skills acquired from creating previous animation stories – iPad app iMotion will be the primary tool to learn basic stop motion animation; adjusting frame rates, creating scenes and settings, using tripods for fixed frame views, etc.
Students use found objects, white boards, paper drawings, etc., to create a 20-30 second stop motion animation “story”, frame rate at a speed to make the motion relatively smooth. Export iMotion footage, and import to iMovie on the iPad, add sound and export to upload to their ePortfolios.
This was a fun way to use our iPads (at home) to make a stop motion video.
