Turn Your Computer Screen Into a Movie Set with iStopMotion .
17/05/2013
The iStopMotion screen capture feature is exceptional. It is a real pleasure to watch the application in action, comments Cody Creed, an art teacher from Manitoba, Canada who tested out the new screen capture capability in iStopMotion 3.1. As an artist, I wish to share my process. This feature makes it easy to show how I create images from scratch in a dynamic and interesting way. I also find it works great in spaces. That way you can capture without the visual clutter of two applications at once. It has a great deal of potential, which will be realized when the art community gets their hands on it.
Creed has been using both the Mac and iPad versions of iStopMotion in the classroom for years and has students animate things like scientific processes and current events. He says the interactivity and ability to see certain processes sped up in a stop motion animation helps students better understand certain concepts.
Watch lunar oculus, a timelapse of a drawing Creed illustrated in Photoshop, recorded with iStopMotion 3.1.
Investing in new features for iStopMotion always yields great returns in the form of incredible, new, creative stop motion movies or timelapse videos created by the users, says Oliver Breidenbach, CEO, Boinx Software. I remember when I went to school, we were shown a timelapse of Picasso drawing, which was mesmerizing to watch. I am looking forward to seeing many other clever ways to use this new feature of iStopMotion for Mac.
Charlie Collier, a 20-year-old Texas native, also uses iStopMotion for all of his stop motion animation needs. Most recently, he created a music video for singer/songwriter Lincoln Durham's song Ballad of a Prodigal Son, using iStopMotion to animate handmade props and scenery perfectly to the music.
I really like iStopMotion. It's really helpful and that's what I like about it it's not overly complicated, allows you to do some editing, and is effective without trying to be something it's not, says Collier. You can import the audio track and see the waveform in the timeline. That was an awesome feature to have when I was animating Lincoln's character to play along with the guitar. If it wasn't for that feature, I'd be really angry.
