Becky and I decided to create a puppet-like stop motion video for our digital story! We debated a lot of options before we stuck to this idea. One idea in particular was that we were going to create a song or a poem out of the tweets our classmates sent over the semester. This became difficult because the #ecs200 hashtag didn’t show all of the tweets. We ended up basing our story on the things we tweeted throughout the semester as a guideline. This was our first experience with stop motion, so it was quite nerve wracking at first, but I think it turned out great! You can tell in the beginning that it was more of a puppet-style type and near the end, it was more of a stop motion video, although the entire video was stop motion. I realized that stop motion is very time consuming and requires a lot of work! We first started out using an app called “Stop Motion Studio”, but then we just took pictures on my iPhone and transferred them onto iMovie through iPhoto! I hope you enjoy the video! We definitely worked very hard to finish it!
