Stop Motion Animation is an excellent way to have students begin to explore the world of movie making. There are several stop motion animation apps and programs that help you begin your journey. Stop motion animation can be very simple to extremely complex. Most students will recognize stop motion animation from movies such as The Nightmare Before Christmas, Wallace and Grommit and Coraline. Many of your students may have already explored stop motion animation on their own. There are several stop motion apps for iPad and programs for laptops available. The apps developed for the iPad are quite user friendly. Programs developed for laptops can be a bit more tricky, and better suited for a more advanced user, they are great programs to work with once you have the basics down pat. Many apps are free, but require in app purchases to be fully operational or you must transfer your captured images to iMovie to do the final editing. Upgraded versions of the “free” apps often have built in editors as is the case with Stop Motion Pro. There are also stop motion apps available for a fee. |
