What is Stop Motion ▣ An animation technique where an object is moved in small increments between individually photographed frames, creating the illusion of movement when the series of frames is played as a continuous sequence.
Objective ▣ The student will photograph a sequence of still images that will be put together to create a short animation.

Storyboard Examples
Create A Storyboard ▣ If you try and create a stop motion animation without first planning you will spend a lot of time during the editing process! ▣ Start with a script . You must know what you want to communicate. Sometimes it’s easier to start this in writing. ▣ Mentally visualize your story . What visual elements create the intro, the development, and the conclusion? Will you need to alternate between wide angle and detail shots?
Shoot NOT to Edit ▣ The point of a stopped motion piece is not individual photos. The point is multiple image series capturing motion. ▣ You don’t have the time to edit each individual shot. You will be editing the series when placing them into a timeline.
