Unschooling Blog, Vol. 48: Stop Motion Animation Fun

# One thing I've been interested in since childhood is [stop-motion animation](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stop_motion)/movie making.

# As a kid I made several of my own original movies and really enjoyed the production process of any original and creative work.

# This is one passion which remains with me into adulthood, and which happily, I've found I can share with my son, as his enthusiasm for this type of thing is also quite pronounced!

# Please enjoy our most recent 8-second film, "The Fight"!

# We've also had a bit of fun in the past exploring green screen technology!

# What does a child learn when interestedly engaging in this type of production? Well, it could be any range of things. But here are a few that come naturally with the territory:

* process/order of operations
* cinematography/video editing/audio dubbing
* storyline creation
* dialogue/character development
* YOU NAME IT.
***
**I realize some may think it is quite a stretch to say that making 8-second videos can teach a child these things, but I would beg to differ. These things are not learned as "lessons" in this process, but as natural elements of the creation process necessary to the completion of a work.**

# Why would a child want to engage in all of these different areas of skill? Well, because it's *fun!*

Art creation can be super zen also. Dig a hole and fill it up so to speak. 

Who was the scriptwriter? 😊

This is why I wanna show my son the different things you can do and it’s all about having fun. For them anything new seems fun and once they adapt to it , it becomes their habit . 

Soon I wanna show my son blocks so he can enhance his skills as well. He’s only 9 months right now

So much value in learning something through it's natural process, than reading from a book or watching a screen. Thanks for sharing!

> I realize some may think it is quite a stretch to say that making 8-second videos can teach a child these things, but I would beg to differ. 

That's another thing most fail to realize: it takes half an hour to create something like this that's only 8 seconds. Kids see the work that goes in - but the end result is so worth it :D Enjoyed the film, guys :D and not sure if the police here are the heroes lol!
