Home Badge Work - Create your own Stop Motion Animation

Report Copyright Infringement View in OSM UK

Description

What I’d like you to do is create your own animation using an app called Stop Motion Studio.

I want you to create your own animation just like Wallace and Gromit and Sean the Sheep. The story and stars of the show are completely up to you ( but if you could avoid fighting and violence). You could use toys or lego figures, PlayDo, Subbuteo figures or you could even use random stuff like vegetables or junk.


Resources

You'll need your parent's smart phone or iPad ( do ask them first)
Ask your parent to download Stop Motion from their App Store
A phone tripod or some kind of structure ( you could build your own with... lego?) to hold your phone/ipad in place would be useful.

Instructions

Full instructions are attached.

Summary
1) Write a Story Board roughly detailing what will happen in your animation and for you to follow
2) Create your back drop / film studio
3) Start filming. Press the Plus sign to start a new animation project and start taking pictures. Move your animated objects very slightly at a time - you'll need to take lots of photos and time. It took Nick Park 15 months to make Wallace and Gromit ( I don't want you to take that long :-)
4) Add the sound / audio by pressing the speaker button. You'll see your video playing and you can add your chat, narration and sound effects.
5) Get your parent/ guardian to send the completed video in via Online Scout Manager / WhatsApp.
