Production of final animation

The first program I used was iStopmotion with a stop motion camera. I first connected the camera to the USB in the computer, and then positioned it to where I wanted it to get the angle right for the animation.

To actually create the animation, I had to click the red button on the controls on the bottom of the window to record each step (below).


Each time I moved the objects in my animation, I had to make sure to click this button and to not get my hand in the frame, which would have made the animation look less interesting and professional. If I did accidentally get my hand in the shot, which I did several times, I would delete it by hovering the cursor over the timeline, clicking it and then right clicked and delete.



After I had finished recording my animation like this, I imported it into iMovie. Here, I dragged the video into the timeline and then imported the music, when the music was added, it looked like this:


Then, to add the titles, I clicked on the T symbol, which you can see underneath the video window.


I then selected a style from the menu that came up after I clicked that. Once I had chosen, I dragged the frame into the section of video I wanted it to be.



Once I had added all the titles I wanted, I finalised the project and exported it.
