In my first year of art school, we had a stop motion animation workshop in our sculpture class. We used a program called iStopMotion, and from what I could remember, it worked pretty well.
I enjoyed it so much that I decided to make a lil claymation for my long distance gal pals. Here it is:
So, I thought I’d revisit the app again for this project.
When I originally download the app, it said it wasn’t meant for newer macs, but I thought I’d try it anyway. The thing I liked about this program was that I could use the app on my phone to take the pictures, while it uploaded them, in real time, to the program on my desktop computer.
So I began my own little animation, and all was going well, until…
It crashed.
200 pictures in and it crashed.
Naturally, I was disheartened and had trouble revisiting the project for a while.
