How to do an animation video

For make an animation video you have to something who take photos like a photographic camera or a cellphone.
In my case, I gonna give an example with my video "DOLL?", who used 143 photos for a video with 1 minute and 23 seconds duration.
First, I put the doll in the initial position (as you want) and I took a photo.

After that, to look like the doll is raising her arm alone (something impossible for a doll that doesn't move your arms electronically), I lifted her arm a little bit and I take one more photo.


And I continued moving the doll and taking photos ...


When you finish making the sequence you want, always for one new movement taking a picture, follow these steps:

Windows:

- Connect the cellphone or the photography camera in the computer
- Import the photos for a folder in computer
- Open the Windows Movie Maker
- Go to the menu "Movie Tasks", "Capture Video" and "Import Pictures"
- Then, import the pictures for Windows Movie Maker
- Select all photos and drag to the time line
- Go to menu "Edit Movie" "and "View Video Effects"
Apply the effect "Speed Up, Double" in all photos and how many times you want until the video feel the way you want
- Export the movie in menu "Finish Movie"

Macintosh:

- Connect the cellphone or the photography camera in the computer
- Open the iPhoto
- Select the photos you want and click in"Import Selected"
- After the photos have been imported, open the iMovie
- Select all photos and drag to the time line
- Select one photo, click in keyboard key "I", adjust the duration to 1 second or to seconds and click "apply in all images"
- Go to menu "Share" and in "Export Movie"


ENJOY!
