Bring inanimate objects to life.

Students learn how to bring inanimate objects to life as they share ideas, create worlds and simulate motion using toys, cut-out puppets or any other object they can find. They explore how image sequencing, incremental movement and frame rate impact the smoothness of stop motion animation. This class gives students the tools they need to make their own animated movies using animation software. The final product is uploaded to YouTube for students to share with friends and family.
