Planning Animations

Campers who are creating stop motion animations are in the midst of planning their projects.  This usually comes in two pieces: preparing the actual props and scenery and technology, and storyboarding the video so they can plan out what their videos will look like.  This is important because they need to know how many frames of video they need to shoot.  For example, one group wants to have eight seconds of two dueling stuffed animals staring each other down before a battle.  With 15 frames per second of video in our stop motion projects, we know that 15 fps x 8 seconds = 120 frames of staring.  This planning is really key to producing a successful video, and the groups are doing a great job!
