Here is a lovely project to add to the Animated Zoetrope, Monster Chomper, and the Shadow Puppet projects. It’s one of the Royal Acadamy family projects to do at home: you don’t need amazing drawing skills for this animation project as you can make images using cut-outs from magazines.
Your mobile phone or tablet acts as a camera, and you use the Stop Motion app to create the film. They include step by step instructions, and a video demonstration.

If you have made a Monster Chomper, Zoetrope drawings, or a Shadow Puppet creature you can use these to create your digital animated film.
