Stop Motion Animation – Gr. 3-6 Embrace the art and science of animation and let your creativity shine as you bring inanimate objects to life using ZU3D software and webcams to create your own Stop Motion Animation movie! Stop motion animation is a hands-on technique used to create the illusion of movement by taking a series of still images and playing them back in sequence. Using clay figures, puppets, paper cutouts, LEGO mini-figures, and other everyday materials, the journey of stop motion animation is filled with endless possibilities. Whether you’re making a simple story or a complex adventure ZU3D makes the process easy and enjoyable, including frame-by-frame capturing, onion skinning, and a simple interface for adding sound, titles, and special effects to give your animation a polished, professional look. Projects: Animate a Story, Space in Motion, LEGO Party, The Dragon Who Came to School, and much more!
