Making of Stop Motions.

To make a stop motion successful several things have to be taken into account, and some sort of plan is needed. The several things that need to be thought about will help make your video look a little more professional, well thought out and make the general video look better.

Just the use of a tripod allows you to make sure that all of the images are the same view and look more thought out. By using a tripod the camera is able to stay in the same position and this will help the pictures flow a lot easier when they are put together to make the stop motion movie. Also by using the tripod the position of the camera and how stable it is gives you couple less things to worry about when making these videos.

Settings on the camera should also remain the same through out the whole shoot of the stop motion so that non of the pictures change only the subject matter changes. If the camera settings were changed this would alter the flow of the video and make it look not thought out and less professional. The ISO should always remain the same as this would alter the video the most, also the focus. Always make sure that the camera is focused on the subject so that the viewer can easily tell what is happening in the video.

When placing the images into software to make the video make sure that all of the pictures fit the screen and each picture does not vary on how they look such as the orientation and how they fir the screen.

All of the these things should be taken into account when making a stop motion video so that the video does not look rushed. By not following these simple tips the stop motion video could look rushed, not thought out and un-professional. The quality should be great even if you think the idea isn't.
