Stop-Motion Animation

My Video Production students are about to embark on the journey of stop-motion animation.  They seemed a little hesitant to create their own animations after watching a few professional examples in class.  On my way home from school that day, I decided to stop at the dollar store and pick up a few toys/items. 

When I got to class the next day, each row (group) of students received a mystery envelope with one of the toys inside.  They had one period to create a stop-motion animation while using this mystery item.  Some students had time to add sound to their works as well. 
This video represents the stop-motion animations that were made in class just this week.  The students are just finishing up their planning and each will create a 30-45 second stop motion that revolves around the theme of process or struggle.
