this is the video we created using istopmotion.

using a series of pictures and running them as a video it creates the effect that we are moving.

this is where we got the idea from, it is one of the first animations made using this technique.

Early developement of stop motion animation

zoetrope

this a zoetrope animation it is a barrell with images slotted inside, it has gaps/slits round the top of the barrel to look through. When the barrell is spun it makes the images look like they're moving.

phenatikoscope

a phenakitoscope is simply a small disc with pictures around it, then when spun it appears as if the pictures are moving.
