HOW TO MAKE A SAVE THE DATE IN STOP MOTION

The principle of stop motion is to make a photograph for each shot, then to assemble those using tools.
  1. To do this, think about the story
  2. Define a storyboard, think about each shot (possibly a photograph by letter).
  3. Realize images
  4. Transfer all these photographsto your computer.
  5. Load them into your software (eg Live Movie Makerfor Windows or iMovie for Mac).
  6. Create your slideshow
  7. Fine-tuning the parameters (speed of images, sound editing)
  8. export and publishyour video

HOW MUCH TIME AND DIFFERENT IMAGES?

Difficult to give a time of realization, it is to link to the number of images, the number of scene, and the number of place that you wish to integrate. It takes at least half a day to shoot. Likewise for the assembly, count at least 4 hours of work to have a good result. In the case of a stop motion 2 to 3 frames per second is enough, knowing that some images can “last” longer.]]>
