Stop-motion is a fun and easy way to get started in film-making. You don't need expensive equipment and you don't have to be a technical wizard, although the results might make you look like one. All you need is:

    • Digital camera
    • Computer
    • Standard editing software (Mac: iMovie - PC: Windows Live Movie Maker)

For a step-by-step guide on how to use Windows Live Movie Maker to create an animation, click here.

Have fun and be sure to share your projects with the library! We love watching your masterpieces!
