Fairfax Collegiate Summer 2012

Stop-Motion Animation 5-6

Students use still cameras, audio recorders, and Final Cut Express to create stop-motion animation projects. These can be narrative (scripted) or experimental videos created from LEGO blocks, modeling clay, action figures, and other “found objects” used for settings or props.

This introductory course covers the basics of using household objects and miniature construction to create a compelling story. The course provides an overview of photography, sound recording, and video editing as part of the filmmaking process.
