Stop Motion lighting tips and tricks - Lighting stop motion animation movies is the key to the best animation you can achieve - here's how to achieve that
Hoy os traemos a Helga Stentzel, una talentosa artista visual Rusa, actualmente afincada en Londres, Reino Unido. Conocida por su serie de «surrealismo doméstico», Helga utiliza elementos cotidianos como ropa, utensilios de cocina, libros y pan para crear personajes y escenas únicas. Su trabajo abarca diversos medios, incluyendo ilustración, fotografía, video y animación stop motion. Helga estudió en el Instituto Estatal de Tecnología de Omsk y obtuvo una licenciatura en Diseño Gráfico y Publicidad de Central Saint Martins en Londres. Inició su carrera como directora de arte en la industria publicitaria antes de dedicarse por completo a su arte. Helga destaca por su creatividad al transformar objetos domésticos en ilusiones ópticas humorísticas, como se evidencia en sus obras «Pegasus» y «Smoothie», donde convierte la ropa colgada en una línea de lavado en un caballo y una vaca. En 2020, fue galardonada como la «Creadora de Arte Alimentario del Año» en los Snackable Content Awards, reconociendo su originalidad y habilidad para dar vida a personajes a partir de elementos cotidianos Helga Stentzel es una artista versátil que ha logrado captar la atención internacional con su singular enfoque artístico.

Inject the 'A' into your STEM challenge projects with cut paper and the free app Stop Motion on the iPad. The 'A' being Art of course! Full STEAM ahead... We used Stop Motion and cut paper to make moving models of the Lunar Cycle and the phases of the moon in science. The challenge was that students were only allowed to use cut paper (you could also use Oreos for this to mimic the moon as shown in this free download) and the app Stop Motion to show all 8 lunar phases. As with any STEM/STEAM challenge, I introduced

I have finally built my stop motion work area. Very excited to have a place to work (that is in the darkest part of the garage, so I know our toddler won't go near it).
Have you tried Stop Motion Animation with your students? My students are OBSESSED. I love how engaged they are and the creativity that they have totally
This Stop Motion Animation project is easy to set up in minutes, and a great way to encourage STEAM concepts with children.

I am an advocate for cross-curricular learning, especially when it comes to educational activities or lessons that involve STEAM. (In case you didn't know, the acronym STEAM stands for: Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math.) In this blog post, learn how to prepare your students for what may be their 1st stop motion project, and set them up for success from the very start!
I have always wanted to do a stop motion animation project with students but was overwhelmed the the amount of equipment I would need -- cameras, tripods, computers, computer software, a computer lab.... times however many groups I would have. Then came iPads and iPad apps. Sometime during the summer or fall I found an app called 'Stop Motion'. It's a .99 cent app that is super user friendly that creates stop motion animation -- you can do all sorts of things directly in this app to have a full video of awesomeness. Now that I found the app I just needed enough iPads - which was almost as overwhelming as needing ALL the extra equipment. Lucky for me our building purchased a few iPads for teacher/student use. I claimed the iPads for two weeks in May to try out stop motion animation! I waited. I planned. May came and suddenly it was time to load up the iPads with Stop Motion and pray to the art teaching gods that my lesson plan would work. The week before I drew out some backgrounds on some old file folders and asked students to color them when they were finished with work. I also took some GIANT white paper, an iPad, and a ruler to grid out the sight lines of the camera. I had students color this grey. The day came to put all my planning to the test - about 20 minutes before my first class walked in I tried to download the .99 app only to find no way to purchase the app and download it on each iPad. (rightfully so, the school ipads did not come with a credit card on file). I started to panic. Would I really need to buy 10.00 gift cards for each one for a 99 cent app?!!? Then I got smart. I gifted Stop Motion to myself 4 times and redeemed them on each ipad. WHEW. That was close. How I set it up: 3-5 kids in a group depending on how many students are in class (I had 6 stations) 1 Large white paper with grey trapizoid 1 background 1 iPad loaded with Stop Motion Pattern blocks 1 ruler to angle iPad I explained how the app worked, their job, how to rotate through being the director, and stressed as much as I could to NOT MOVE THE IPAD OR THE BACKGROUND. One student is the Director at a time. The director's job is to make sure all body parts are out of the shot- take the picture - then tell group to move pieces. I set a timer for 2 or 3 minutes (depending on group size). When the timer goes off directors change. The director doesn't get to boss around what the movers do - their only job is to clear the picture of body parts and take the picture. The group works together to make ONE long video - the video DOES NOT change when the director does. The lesson worked even better than I expected. The kids used the app with little help or instruction. I did find that the older students did a better job being patient and moving pieces a little at a time - the younger kids seemed to get excited and make larger movements between pictures. Towards the end of class I have groups clean up their stations while I collect their iPads and turn on the projector. When everyone is cleaned up we watch their movies on the digital projector. (All you need is an adapter that goes from your iPad to VGA cable for the projector). Overall the lesson was a complete success - I have parents e-mailing asking what app it is, students are begging to do it again next time (which I already have planned!)
