In this workshop, we will learn the techniques for creating a stop motion animated film using a smartphone or tablet. We will be able to storyboard ideas and to use home objects as characters in the narrative. We will design characters that follow a story arch, and design micro sets for the films. Using Stop Motion Studio, we will learn to put together a movie to share and to send to friends and family.

MATERIALS: Clay, wire, cardboard, paper, color paper, tape, thread, color pencils, glue.
