Your suppose to use a camcorder and record it frame by frame. Well, thats what I do.

I have a logitech quickcam, and it just has a picture option, i tried that, but it just takes seperate pictures.

And no i can't put them all together for some reason.

Double post

So, the trial crap didn't work out. That piece of crap was crap.

It was a wanna-be big corporation.

I use photoshop to make .gif's

But i made a video with a free program called stop
I don't remember where i found it, it's very simple.

Here's one of my videos. I plan to make another stop motion sometime soon-ish.

it's not a great drawing because i improvised. but that's okay. it was still very cool to have accomplished

it just takes seperate pictures.

...Pretty sure that's how you make stop motion/claymation films.

I was actually really into stop motion in the past, and I used a program called MonkeyJam . Its free, and works with your webcam. It may not directly say it can be used for stop motion, but it can.

A good framerate to use with stop motion is 15 FPS.

I use Stop Motion Maker. It's got a built in Chroma Keyer and a ton of other stuff, too.
