Product Description
The creation of this lesson began with a phone call from the Asia Educational Resource Consortium inviting us to lead plenary sessions at a Family Education Conference in Chiang Mai, Thailand. Conference coordinators asked for four lecture/workshops, but they specified only one topic: they wanted a session that would teach people how to make stop-action movies.
We love making stop-action movies and make them for video birthday cards, for information, and for just plain fun. But we had no idea how much fun the people in Chiang Mai would have at the movie-making workshop. They enjoyed the process so much we decided we just HAD to make a lesson on stop-action movies so everybody could have this kind of fun!
The art lesson begins by providing students with a short scenario. Students use the scenario to create a storyboard, puppets, and a video.
Along the way they learn about:
- What makes a story interesting and
- How to work together effectively in a group.
- By the end of the lesson kids will have learned a process and discovered resources to make more sophisticated stop-action movies.
This lesson includes a VIDEO version of the lesson plus a downloadable printout of a storyboard.
Approximate Time to Complete the Art Lesson:
- Planning the movie: 45 minutes
- Creating puppets and background: 20 minutes
- Shooting the video: 30 minutes
- Editing the video: this depends on how sophisticated you want the movie to be.
