Here at the Barrington Area Library, we love making stop-motion animation videos because they are easy, there are so many different kinds, and you don’t need a lot of equipment.

Check out the video below where I show you how to make a stop-motion video with a camera, iMovie, and toys. If you are using a smart phone or device, there are several apps that will help you put your stop-motion animation video together. 

Now that you know how to make stop-motion animation videos, we would love to see what you make! Send your videos to youthservices@balibrary.org by June 15th.

Learning something new is both fun and challenging. Take a mindful moment and breathe. Take a few deep breaths. Inhale by 'smelling a flower' and exhale like you are blowing out a candle on a cake.
