8p7- Stop motion

Using modeling clay , I created a stop motion because Jayla and I thought it would be fun. It was fun to make the stuff out of clay. And filming it was pretty cool.

During this process, I learned what stop motion was and how to do it. I knew the basics of it but i didn't really know what it was. I also learned how you filmed it,that was pretty cool.

The 7 standards of the class are Empowered Learner, Digital Citizen, Knowledge Constructor, Innovative Designer, Computational Thinker, Creative Communicator, and Global Collaborator. My project ties to innovative designer because we designed a story to tell with clay. And we designed the clay to how we wanted it, and just the little details.

A challenge I overcame on this project was when we put the car on fire before it crashed. I was able to do it by just cutting it out. You can still tell what happened but it just doesn't have as much detail.

Given a chance to do this again, I would change how long the video it. The reason why I would change it is because its just really really short. I know stop motion isn't supposed to be supper long the fact we lost a chuck of it made it pretty short. Cut a whole 2 seconds off a 4 second video.
