Software Features of Frames

Students can create stop-motion animated stories using pictures from a digital or DV camera, photographs of a clay animation, or pictures they draw in Pixie or Twist. Students can save their work as video or animation files to share online, in multimedia presentations, or for inclusion in other video productions.
