Animate your ideas with everyday objects and record videos for social media by experimenting with stop motion techniques
Stop motion is a great way to get started with manual animation and achieve original and entertaining results. Breathe life into your ideas with just a smartphone and a few everyday objects like modeling clay, paper, food, clothes, and a large dose of imagination. Learn to create the illusion of movement and share your stories with the world on social media.
After showing you how to make your own movie in their course Stop Motion: Frame by Frame Animation, animators Coke Riobóo and Lourdes Villagómez are back with the secrets to shooting and editing a stop motion video with your smartphone. Thanks to the applications Stop Motion Studio and YouCut, you have everything you need to create animations with objects found around your own home.
