Stop motion movies
Stop motion is a special type of movie-making. It uses real objects, instead of drawings, to tell a story. The story roles can be people, animals, or even everyday objects. You can make them out of clay (橡皮泥) or just use some small toys.

Make up a short story. Make sure it has a beginning, middle and an end. Then write down your story. Pick a place where you're going to shoot the movie. Make sure you'll have enough room to take pictures. Collect or make the roles you'll need for your movie, then prepare any backdrops (背景幕布) (Even a piece of cloth will work). Set up your first shot. Put your roles and props (道具) at the right place for your first scene. Keep your "movie camera" steady (稳定的) with the three legs. Repeat the step above over and over and until you complete your story. |
