Introduction\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

Animated films are an integral part of our lives<\/strong>. Children love them for entertainment and education<\/strong>, adults for their artistic expression<\/strong>. Many times animation is used in music videos, video explainers or commercials. Most animated films nowadays are computer generated<\/strong>, but there is still a strong presence of handmade animation<\/strong>. Hand made animation can be hand drawn, made with puppets, plasticine, cut<\/strong> out<\/strong> or made in some other sometimes even exsotic stop motion techniques.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Making stop motion animated films can help you develop different fine motor skills<\/strong> and include you in group work<\/strong>, both are competences that we often lack in our society. In this chapter you will get to know some of the optical illusion toys<\/strong> that were the predecessors of stop motion animated films. You will get a quick insight into different stop motion techniques<\/strong> that will help you choose the technique you want to use for your film.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

  • Stop motion animated films are playing with human perception of motion<\/strong>. That means that we perceive individual images played quickly enough as movement.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • \u00a0Different optical illusion toys<\/strong> are based on human perception of motion as well.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Creating one of your own optical illusion toys helps you better understand how perception of motion functions.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Different stop motion animated films are made in different techniques<\/strong>.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n

Equipment and tools\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

For this chapter you will need some paper, scissors, markers and crayons for creating optical illusion toys along with a computer, tablet or smartphone with internet access for researching and watching different animated films.<\/span><\/p>\n

Main section<\/span><\/h2>\n

Stop motion animation<\/strong> is a technique in which objects are moved and photographed individually<\/strong> but when the end result is played together they appear as a motion<\/strong>. Making stop-motion animation is very basic in theory. But a more advanced stop motion animation level needs a little bit more input. We will explain it in detail in different chapters of this handbook. In the end, it also provides much more interesting and visually pleasing results.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
