Stop-Motion Animation Session 4: Editing & Publishing Stop-Motion
April 27, 2017 @ 4:30 pm - 6:00 pm
This is the final session of this four-session workshop.
In this session, participants will learn how to use the features of the animation software to edit images, add sound effects or voiceovers, and edit the video timeline. Students will be able to add title frames to the beginning of their stories and crawling credits at the end of their stories. When the stop-motion production piece is final, the student will be able to publish the story to digiSTORY KC’s YouTube Channel where links can be shared with family and friends.
This workshop is recommended for kids who are 9 – 16 years of age.
The cost for all four sessions is $35.00 (plus Eventbrite fees). Here’s the full Stop-Motion Animation workshop program:
Thursday, April 6th: 4:30 – 6:00 p.m.
- Making Pictures Move: Participants will be able to explain how “key framing” establishes the illusion of movement.
