OVERVIEW Technology List Example Technology List Template Prepare for stop motion

PREPARE for STOP MOTION OVERVIEW Watch a few examples Large group work Small group work

PREPARE FOR STOP MOTION Watch a few examples Peter Gabriel “Sledgehammer” music video starting at 2:20Sledgehammer Stop Motion sand sculpturesand sculpture Skittles commercial Post-it Notes Watch a person making a Lego stop motion character walk

LAST SEMESTER’S PROJECT I provided the big idea Students brainstormed sequences & visuals tonight Brainstormed 5 sequences that when combined will form one video –We had enough students to form 5 small groups Each sequence roughly 5-6 seconds Brainstorming ideas included references to objects in stop motion as well as the motion Big idea: 30 second open to my online course SPED 502 Learning theory in special education

LARGE GROUP WORK We will brainstorm sequences & visuals tonight Brainstorm 3 sequences that when combined will form one video Each sequence roughly 8-9 seconds Brainstorming ideas should include references to objects in stop motion as well as the motion Volunteer to type ideas so we can see them go up Starting with end in mind –We need a plan for next week –Materials to shoot –Transitions between the 3 sequences So end of sequence 1 needs to segway into sequence 2 and sequence 2 segway into 3 –etc

SMALL GROUP WORK Form the groups Each group storyboards their sequence –Draw on paper or using software –Minimum of 5 boards/pictures –Include object(s) and their motion(s) –Include notes about tripod/camera location –Include notes about where to take the pictures (lab, classroom, hallway) –No script/dialogue; we will play music under Each group identifies resources –Digital still camera –Tripod –Materials for motion If you do not possess/own/access to materials let me know Share your storyboard with us tonight –Need to have some degree of coordination/transition between them

NEXT SESSIONS 9/19 Stop motion production –Bring in cameras (fully charged or with power supply) –Bring in tripods, SD cards, cables to connect to computers –I will bring in some lights –Bring in all the objects necessary for motion –We will set up the shooting, acquire the photographs –Time permitting we will put pictures on the computer 9/26 Stop motion Presentations 9/26 Technology List Presentations
