About

Stop motion dates back more than 125 years. A lot has changed in that time, but what hasn’t is that animators move a character or object one frame at a time to make a scene. That’s exactly what we will be doing in this camp. We will take handmade characters and other everyday objects to make an entertaining scene and put it all together with the help of modern technology that happens to be in everyone’s pockets - their phones.

We will do the following:

  • Break down what stop motion is and its history
  • Come up with our “big idea”
  • Learn the tools that we will use (phone apps, etc.)
  • Light
  • Shoot
  • Edit (video and audio)
  • Present
