My 11 year-old son is trying his hand at stop-motion animation.
I loaned him my camera and tripod and we created a short ( about 7 seconds or so ) little film with Windows Movie Maker. He did all the clay and animation stuff with a little help from his little sister. She manned the camera for a while. I helped out with uploading the pictures and figuring out the movie maker software.
For now, the windows movie file resides on the web host's server. But, I think we are going to look at uploading the video to You Tube and see if that works better for him. We're learning a few things by doing this and I think it would be kind of cool if he started sharing his experiences while doing this.

I know M. I was pretty impressed with his first try.
He's a multi-talented kid. Must be in his genes ;)
Yes, I did do good. I'm making another. It will be done soon. I'm currently making the characters. Thanks.
