Claymation & Animation Camp ideas 1. Animated Gif using online gif maker - http://picasion.com/get-photo/

Pencil.org http://www.pencil-animation.org/

Chronolapse https://code.google.com/p/chronolapse/

Video Scribe []

Make 3 word images on Photoshop (such as my Welcome animation) Upload to the web site Download and use in a wikispaces page

2. Frames - get code from my __school__ email

3. Use iPads to take the pictures? Check out iPads to the campers - need to get the Griffin Survivors for them.

4. Use Whiteboard type app (Show me, Doodlebuddy, educreations, others?) No, too hard to email individual photos from iPad to self to put in stop motion video. Maybe work with iMovie? No, iMovie goes too slow - don't know how to speed it up on the iPad.

5. Get some cheap whiteboards (or borrow from Natalya?) for the camp to do a whiteboard stop motion animation.

5. WeicoGIF HD, iMoiton and/or Kinotopic apps on iPad email the Weico GIF to yourself and then open it in a web browser

1. open Safari or Chrome or Firefox

2. Click the file button at the top of the screen

3. Click open then select your file and click open

4. watch your funny animation Xxxx

6. iTunesU - to show some student examples

7. Use this site - online stop motion maker http://www.culturestreet.org.uk/activities/stopframeanimator/

8. Lesson Plans and video example: http://interfaceonline.co.nz/downloads/INTERFACE%20Lesson%20Plan%2049%20-%20Create%20a%20Stop-Motion%20Animation.pdf

9. Information for iPhone app (this is not available as an iPad app) to use with Legos http://www.itworld.com/virtualization/271144/want-create-lego-stop-motion-film-theres-app https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/lego-super-hero-movie-maker/id516001587?mt=8 - LEGO Super Heroes __Movie Maker__ app - free - This works great! Can do it with Legos and an iPad for each student.

10. http://www.pil-network.com/Resources/Tutorials/Details/9b376e78-5399-471e-aebc-6a5f4c724b62

11. MonkeyJam - free Stopmotion animation program - make sure to uninstall Visual Bee toolbar and for PPT after downloading and installing MonkeyJam Have to make sure that the Visual Bee toolbar and search tabs are removed from each browser when installing MonkeyJam. There is no choice to not have Visual Bee not install at the same time. This is a PITA. Examples made with MonkeyJam: http://youtu.be/BtBPIyIPdTM http://youtu.be/f-I3Ln6h5iw

__ Need to get __ Crayola Model Magic "Clay" - from Oriental Trading - http://www.orientaltrading.com/crayola-model-magic-modeling-compound-a2-56_8022-12-1.fltr?Ntt=crayola+clay Cameras from Sarah Griffin Survivor Cases for use with iPad for stop motion activities with apps Apps Legos from basement Camp supplies from storage room - colored paper, scissors, glue sticks, tape, markers, colored pencils boxes from Sams club Barbies from Flea Markets Toys from Dollar store Colorful Post it notes Check the new MovieMaker to make sure this will work with it - if not, need to get the old Movie Make version!!!

=1. Ask:= =What is animation?= =Have you ever seen animated movies? Name a few.= =Titles of the movies recorded on bubbl.us=

media type="custom" key="9803181" = = =What is the difference between an animated movie and a live action movie?= =Record on Mind42=

media type="custom" key="9803357"

= = = = =Animation and live action movies are really the same - that each frame of the movie will show slight movement. I will demonstrate this using a movie playing back in YouTube or on Windows Media Player. I will stop and start the video to show how the individual frames look.=

2. Watch short animation videos. What types of animation are these?

3. Discuss the difference between stop motion animation, claymation, and computer animation. Record responses on Zoho.(cohenl72)

Here's an example of the type of claymation you might make: media type="youtube" key="nRtOu0z-lII" height="525" width="660"

4. Ask: How do you draw or make pictures look like they are animated?

5. Take a picture of one of the campers jumping using the continuous shot mode. Plug the camera into the computer and display the images using Microsoft Photo Manager. Move through them quickly to show motion but then show them slowly so they can see how each frame is a different pose.

6. Activity: Create a flip book using the stop motion animation idea. Practice drawing using this site: []

doink Example

media type="custom" key="9811437"

7. Individual Activity: Brainstorm an idea for a short animation.

8. Plan your story using a storyboard. Remember that stories have a beginning, middle and an end. The story should short and simple. Think about an event or an action. Here is an example:

Simple: The dog barks, the dog ran around, the dog laid down.

Difficult: I woke up this morning and it was my birthday. I thought that it was going to be a boring birthday because I wasn't having a party this year so I just laid in bed for awhile thinking about how old I now am now. Just then, my mom yelled that it was time for breakfast. I turned over in my bed and didn't get out of it. Just then, my mom knocked on my door and asked if she could come in. I said, "Okay." She opened the door with a box with a bright red ribbon tied around it in her hands. I opened the box and out jump a cute white puppy! This was the best birthday ever!


 * Create a flip book of your short animated story above using POST IT notes!** Remember to draw on the bottom half of the note not near the glue side.

9. With a partner, begin planning your claymation. Brainstorm and storyboard. 10. Begin making your set using the box, construction paper, scissors, and glue.

Day 2 Finish background/stage with paper cutouts. Begin making models. Each person in a group takes the pictures to use in their animation.

Day 3 Each camper will finish taking pictures and put the images on the computer. Edit pictures using Microsoft Picture Manager. Make the movie using Movie Maker. Add transitions if you want.

After you finish your editing and complete your movie, upload it to YouTube and then add music.

YouTube account info: login: student@maryvale.com or claymationcamp password: maryvale

Name of account: claymationcamp

Part 2

If you finish all of the editing and your movie is complete, then make a transformation video. Take a piece of clay, make a blob, begin transforming it into a shape such as a person, dog, or tree. Take pictures as it is being transformed. Make a second movie. Upload that one to YouTube.

Day 4

Fold the origami CD sleeve with the cover picture and title.

Do Clay transformation animations.

Do Stop motion with objects animation.

Post all new videos to YouTube user name: claymationcamp password: maryvale

Add videos from YouTube site to CD. Make a Quicktime and Windows Media Video for each one.

Day 5

Create another short animation using an object other than clay (like the matchstick commercial or Stef's shoes).

Finish editing and putting together the final product.

Post to YouTube. After on YouTube, download to my computer so that it can be put on a CD.

Use Frames to create a drawing animation.

Give URL of YouTube site to <span style="border-bottom-style: solid; border-bottom-width: 1px; color: #1c7dff; cursor: pointer; display: block; display: inline-block; height: auto; padding-bottom: 1px; width: auto;">__students__ and parents.

Give awards trophies.

Show to parents and others at 11:30 AM in the library.
