Class Experience

Intermediate Level
An interactive and informative class exploring the creation of ideas to develop a stop-motion animation movie. In this class, we will learn about Stop Motion Animation and discuss ideas for stories to develop. Students will be completing tasks while learning through screen share and discussion. Editing skills will be taught and daily practice will help reinforce the skills.

We will cover storyboards, setup, and material options when beginning our movie-making adventure using animation. In the app, we will cover several aspects of navigating, editing, sharing, and enhancing our movies.

The sessions are structured to allow discussion, questions, and work time to create movies and practice editing.

By the end of class, students will be able to:
* Create a short stop-motion film
* Understand editing tools available
* Share movies and ideas with peers.
* Discuss animation tools and techniques

Please Note:
* Students need to have the paid version of Stop Motion Studio Pro - this is an additional cost. See the link in "Resources" for the link to the app.
* Classroom teacher will use an iPad to screen share when demonstrating 
* Bring your printed storyboard, a pencil, and any materials that you want to use in your movie.

Students will:
-Create a short film
-Understand the editing options available
-Discuss and share movie-making progress
