Behind the Scenes of Stop-Motion

I just found this pretty neat video that brings us behind the scenes of the making of a stop-motion animation movie. I got the link from a great site called AnimateClay, which always has interesting resources for those of us interesting in exploring the world frame-by-frame.

(Head to Making Stopmotion Movies) In less than a week, I will be heading off to Ohio for the Dublin Literacy Conference and one of my sessions is with parents and kids around creating stopmotion movies. I have handouts, but I really wanted a website resource that I could direct people to if they were More >

This is pretty neat — a movie about making a movie, done in claymation animation. It’s by Brad Patullo and the movie, which apparently garnered praise at various film festivals, is called 24 Frames. Here is the first part: And Part 1 here Part 2 here Part 3 here Peace (in the frames), Kevin

Ray Harryhausen: Master of Stopmotion

about 2 years ago - No comments

Wow Youtube again. This time, it is a six-part documentary about Ray Harryhausen, whose work with stopmotion animation and puppets thrilled me as a kid. You probably know the work if you stumbled into dark cinemas on rainy Saturdays for a buck and caught the matinees (Clash of the Titans, Jason and the Argonauts, the More >

How to use Sticky Notes for Stopmotion

about 2 years ago - 3 comments

My friend, George Mayo, posted these two movies at his Vimeo site and they just blew me away. I love the use of sticky notes for stopmotion but I also love the documentary view of creating the movie with sticky notes, too. Shapeshifting Post-It Notes from mrmayo on Vimeo. and THE MAKING OF Shapeshifting Post-It More >

Bringing Kids into the World of Stopmotion

about 2 years ago - 1 comment

It’s been a long but productive four days of co-teaching a Claymation/Stopmotion Movie Camp for middle school students. When I think about it, they accomplished quite a bit. All 16 of the students worked on small claymation clips, learned three to four new software programs and then created (mostly through collaboration with others) a longer More >

Sharing out: Claymation and Comics Summer Camp

about 2 years ago - No comments

We’re about half-way through with the four-day summer camps — one that focuses in claymation/stopmotion movies and the other that centers on comics and graphic novels. Both have been incredibly interesting and the middle school students (mostly boys) are very engaged in the work they are doing. In the movie camp, they have been working More >

(video) Slice of Life: in the movies

about 2 years ago - 9 comments

(This is part of the Slice of Life project) My oldest son had grand ambitions this week to make a movie that combines live action with stop-motion animation. The concept involves a monster that has eaten our cat and then our youngest son and requires the help of a group of characters he has invented More >

Making StopMotion, the easy way

Thanks to Matt, I found a great resource for Stop-Motion movie creation. Included in the site was a link to this video, which shows how you can use MovieMaker (part of the Windows operating system) to create stop-motion movies (with just a digital camera). Why am I sharing this? Well, George Mayo and I have More >

Making StopMotion Movies, part 4

about 3 years ago - No comments

This is my final reflection on the movie project that I did with my students recently, using stop-motion moviemaking to demonstrate a literary idea. Part one dealt with student reactions to the endeavor; Part two was how I implemented the project; and Part three was how I published the videos. This is about how I More >

Making Stop-Motion Movies, part 3

about 3 years ago - No comments

This is the third of a four part series of posts on how my class went about planning, writing and producing short stop-motion movies on the theme of literary terms (see part one and part two). My idea here is to allow me some space to reflect and hopefully, nudge a few of you into More >
