iStopMotion shows you the location of the objects in the last frame, and then you can see where the new locations are going to be. In between each frame, I moved one of the objects just a little bit. For a 16-second animation like the one I produced, that means you're looking at 192 frames. The app defaults to a frame rate of 12 frames per second. I found it ridiculously easy to link my iPhone 4S camera to the iStopMotion app via Wi-Fi and then use the app to snap each frame by tapping a button on the iPad app screen.īy subscribing, you are agreeing to Engadget's Terms and Privacy Policy. You can either use the front or back camera on an iPad 2, or use a free companion app - iStopCamera - on another iOS device to send frame photos to the iPad on which you're creating your masterpiece. The app itself is available on Thursday, December 15 - TUAW was given a preview of both iStopMotion for iPad and the companion iStopCamera app. The "star" of the tutorial, a little yellow figure with spiky hair, will be named in a user contest coming up shortly.

When the app is launched, a pair of clay figures are animated to show you how to use iStopMotion. IStopMotion for iPad (US$4.99) is an app that is designed to get younger iPad users into the thrill of making animated movies through the magic of stop motion animation. Now the company is moving the powerful iStopMotion Mac app to the iPad, and has created a new iPhone app (iStopCamera) to act as a remote camera for iStopMotion for iPad. Their Fotomagico software has been a slideshow favorite for years, and their You Gotta See This! iOS app does a cool job of creating photo collages on the iPhone. I use their Boinx TV app to produce TUAW TV Live every week, and all of our onsite video from Macworld Expo 2011 went through Boinx TV. Boinx Software is one of my favorite Apple development companies.
