How did we get here? We began by watching some amazing stop motion films and thinking about the stories they tell. Click here to view a collection that includes professional and student made films.

 

Then we asked ourselves questions like: What stories do we want to share?Who are our characters? Where are they? What is the setting? What is the problem?

 

 

Students had time to play and experiment before they created a storyboard for their final project.  They presented their storyboard ideas to the group for feedback and then they began making their movies.

 

Using loose parts and other materials from the Story Studio, students created their characters and sets.  They used the StopMo app on their iPads and then used iMovie to add titles, music and sound effects.
