Sixth Grade Animators Create Stop Motion Films

Students worked in small groups to create sets and 3D characters for their own stop motion films. They learned the techniques of pointing and shooting before using iPads to begin filming. Once filming is complete, students will be able to edit their films and add in elements including a title sequence, audio and special effects. This is the first time iPads have been introduced at the elementary art level.
