Polar Bear Claymation

This was a project that we started shortly after spring break. First we read and watched some videos about the affects of Global Warming on polar bears. We then wrote a script together as a whole group activity followed by a lot of editing and changes. Once we had a finalized our script we began to come up with ideas for scenes for our claymation (stop motion animation with clay). Students then created animals and surrounding objects using clay. We then began to take pictures (lots of pictures) slowly moving or adding to objects little bits at a time. When all the pictures were taken they were placed in Windows Movie Maker and the pictures were played in succession for 0.1 seconds. Finally students were chosen to narrate the story using Audacity to record their part.
