This week’s video was first uploaded by Bob Greenberg on the Classroom 2.0 website. I love it and think that his little group of animators prove you don’t need to be old to work technology or understand the process. He writes of it;
My second graders, the Brainwaves, made this stop motion animation as part of the Monster Project, which is organized by Terry Smith of Hannibal, MO. We read Where the Wild Things Are. Next, we made a flow chart and wrote a summary of the story. Then we made a story board. We wrote the script. We had to estimate how many pictures we would need at 10 frames per second to fit with our narration. Some of us worked on the project during lunch and gym. We want to thank. Garret Ferguson, of Lafayette Regional School in Franconia, NH. Garret came to Bridgeport, CT last year and taught us how to make a stop motion video. Garret this one’s for you and “wild things” everywhere.
