DEMO STOP MOTION – While I'm Away

An Experiment in Stop Motion by Amy Goodloe

Approach: This was my first attempt at doing stop motion video (in 2012), using dog toys as an easy source of objects to move.

Tools: I took over 100 photos using an Olympus micro four-thirds camera on a tripod, and I used iMovie to assemble and export them in video format

Lessons Learned: make sure nothing in the environment is going to automatically change over the time you’re shooting. Like, say, a light coming on via a timer!
