Stop Motion Setup Overview

This is an introductory tutorial I created for my animation students about how to set up for their first stop motion assignment. I have posted this to YouTube in case it may be of use to anyone else. It is important to note that there is no discussion of lighting in this video as the students are not asked to concern themselves with setting up lights in this first assignment. 0:00 - Required Materials 2:16 - Mounting the Camera 11:04 - Composing the Frame 18:47 - Prepping Your Models 22:41 - Aligning the Scene in Dragonframe 46:45 - Animating in Dragonframe
