ストップモーションアニメーション：チャレンジスペース

Participate in challenges to create stop-motion videos. Enhance your videos with sounds, effects, and so much more! This class provides students time to work on their movies and ask questions while working. You are encouraged to ask questions. 

We will use the  Stop Motion Studio Pro App. Students should have a basic understanding of the App.

***Note:  If you do not have experience with the app, you can take one of my stop motion classes that will teach you how to use the app. Have the Stop Motion Studio Pro App downloaded on your device.

Our weekly class will consist of the following:
➡️ Introductions and Quick Overview of Class Expectations
➡️ Open Discussion & Practice the Skills You Want to Learn More About
➡️ Have time to Practice and Create a Movie
➡️ Work on adding effects and sounds, editing images, and inserting music.

Students will have the opportunity to discuss topics and ideas in class. It is encouraged to share ideas to promote collaboration, critical thinking, and creativity. Students should bring items they can use to create a scene for their weekly video. Think about the materials that you want to use in your video.

PLEASE NOTE:   Students need the Stop Motion Studio Pro App INSTALLED before class. The paid version has more features. If you choose to have the free version, your child will learn about the other options available, but they will not use them in the free version. We will not cover all the settings in the app (ex., green screen or more advanced editing). These skills are covered in the more extended 3-day class or  4-day camp.
