Preparation for Stop Motion Animation
For computing, Year 6 will be making stop motion animations. We first discussed what is meant by animation and looked at animation in children’s toys in the 19th century. We then looked at a range of stop animations, including Morph and Wallace & Gromit. We familiarised ourselves with the stop motion app on the ipads and used just a ‘blob’ of plasticine to try different effects. After this, we planned our ideas on a storyboard. Next came the modelling of our characters and props. Once we we were ready, we started to film. We will continue filming next week and add voices and sound effects. Look out for the finished products – I can’t wait!
