We offered to let our Dragon (now 5 years old, in Sr Kindergarten) have a day off from virtual school this week if she wanted to create a stop-motion movie.
She, of course, jumped at the chance. I think it was her favourite activity from last year.
So we did the entire project on Monday (October 25, 2021), from writing the script, storyboarding, making the props, recording the dialogue, sound effects, and soundtrack, taking the pictures, and stitching everything together to make a complete stop-motion movie. (Thank you to Éric for all the technical help!)
I’m so very proud of her. She worked very hard.
Making the candy bags for the main characters. (I used the exacto knife) Candy bags! Painting the secret doorway that will lead the main characters from the attic to outside the main door (by magic!) Recording the voices in the furnace room where the big computer is. Getting ready to take pictures, with a helper. Excited to start production “I’m ready!” “No, first you need to be aligned.”
