There are 1001 ways to enjoy a Sunday afternoon, but there are no better than teaching a child how to be creative. With the numerous “How to Videos” on YouTube, there is no shortage of ideas. With a 10 megapixel camera in hand set to macro mode, Microsoft’s Movie Maker and a moderate level of patience, the creative juices were flowing. From start to finish, the three hour stop motion video project resulted in the below YouTube video. In all, the 36 second video required 180 pictures, a few Stars Wars Mini Figuares and the use of MovieWaves free downloadable Star Wars sounds. As Noah thought through each frame and positioned each character, I could not help wonder if this event would spark an interest in moving making or developing animated books.
Message from Noah,
“I did not know this would be so much fun and easy to do. I want to do more, maybe a 2 minute video. Enjoy my video.”
Sincerely,
Noah
