You are going to make your very own claymation. You will use iStopMotion, iMovie, iDVD, and GarageBand to complete this project.


 * The Design Brief:** You are going to make your very own claymation. You will use iStopMotion, iMovie, iDVD, and GarageBand to complete this project. Your video needs to be at least one minute long. You also need to make your own background for your movie. Please refer to my wikispace to get all of the requirements and the rubric.


 * The Design Specifications:**
 * 1) Complete this Design Cycle Paper.
 * 2) Your work should be creative.
 * 3) You should have quality work. (Please just don't throw it together!)
 * 4) Upload your movie into iStopmotion.
 * 5) Create a new page on your wikispace and upload your movie.
 * 6) Add a title at the begining and the end of the movie.
 * 7) Create a GarageBand song.
 * This project involves four stages of the Design Cycle:**
 * 1) **Investigate**: Investigate iStopMotion before you begin your project. Also, find the best way to make clay figures.
 * 2) **Plan**: Brainstorm ideas and choose your best idea. Complete the storyboard paper before you begin your movie.
 * 3) **Create**: Create your movie.
 * 4) **Evaluate**: Reflect on what you have made, by answering the question on my wikispace.
 * ** What did you like best about iStopMotion? I liked how the onion skin worked so we could put the claymation in the same spot each time. **
 * ** What did you like the least about iStopMotion? I didn't like the onion skin because it kept changing to different slides which threw us off a little. **
 * ** What is the Design Cycle? The design cycle is a cycle/ directions that people can use to successfully design products that will work. **
 * ** What is iStopMotion? iStopMotion is a Program on Macs that allows you to take multiple pictures while slightly changing them to create the illusion of motion for a claymation or similar projects. **
 * ** Did you create a quality movie? I think we did our best to make one. **
 * ** How does iStop apply to the real world? Real people make claymation movies which is similar to how we did a claymation. **
 * ** How does the Design Cycle apply to the real world? The design cylce applies to the real world because anyone can use it to complete a task, whether it is creating a claymation or finishing an essay. **
 * ** What grade do you think you deserve? I think I deserve 100% because I followed all the instructions and I tried my best to make a good movie. **
