![]() ![]() I tried the direct upload but couldn’t get it to work: Once you’ve animated your project, you can save it as a project so you can come back to it and improve on it and you can also export it to a variety of formats or directly to YouTube or Facebook. With better lighting and a better camera, things will look much better. The visual fidelity isn’t brilliant but that is entirely down to the camera we used. Once or twice we knocked a dinosaur or archaeologist over but the onion skinning allowed us to reposition the characters pretty well. That time took the plotting, finding all the bits and bobs and shooting it. Our 50 second video took a couple of hours during the last England international (2-0 versus Poland if you’re interested). There are no real short cuts in animation and what you get out is definitely a fair reflection of what you put in. There are more advanced features like Chroma key (green/blue screen effects for putting your animation onto different backgrounds) and you can import audio rather than just narrating over the top. Having said that, considering it’s a real side show from the actual main focus of Stopmotion Studio, it’s perfectly adequate. Personally, in the future I’ll probably add this sort of extra in Adobe Premier Elements since it’s a bit more powerful and flexible in terms of text. There are some rudimentary options for putting credits and text on. ![]() If you cock it up, you can delete it and start again without affecting the video itself. You simply hit the audio record button, are given a 3,2,1 count down and off you go, giving audio over the top of the action. I think I’d rather be able to buy my own decent camera for use in animation, so to my mind Stopmotion Studio does it right.Īdding sound once you’ve shot your video is dead easy too. Stopmotion Studio works with resolutions up to 1080P and can even use DSLRs with Liveview. In fact you can see how bad it is as I shot the above video on it. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing Hue Animation Studio comes with a camera and it’s pretty terrible. Unlike some of the other stop motion packages, Stopmotion Studio doesn’t come with it’s own camera. It’s got a simple and elegant interface that I liked.Ī clean and uncluttered interface makes it very easy to use Although aimed at kids like most software of this sort, it does this by being easy to use rather than garishly horrendous on the chunky icons and colours. It’s Windows only, so you if you a Mac you’ll have to look elsewhere which is a shame since it’s really good fun and easy to use. Stopmotion Studio works on Windows and I can personally confirm it works perfectly well on Windows 8.1. There is so much more you can do creatively with models, and thanks to Playmobil sending us some cool stuff, I had some stuff to hand to attempt to make Jurassic Park IV before the movie moguls managed to. I’ve been itching to try my hand at stop motion video properly for absolutely ages. ![]()
