Stop Motion with LEGO Movie Maker

Reflection - Creating a stop motion film was fun, but quite time consuming. First, a tripod would have been very helpful. It is really hard to keep the iPad in the same position throughout the filming. One must also have a lot of patience because in order to make the film flow, the objects can only be moved a very small distance.
     This project would be very fun if students were acting out a scene from a book. Different groups could pick different highlights from a novel and then bring them to life through stop action films. I have taught a  LEGO Night Lights (after school enrichment) class for the last several years. It would be fun to incorporate the stop action movie making into this class, too.
