Animation iXi

A fun and simple way to make stop-motion animated films.

Your everyday objects come to life before your eyes!

This Musée de la civilisation (MCQ) app was created as part of the Frame x Frame. The Animated Films of the NFB, presented until August 23, 2015.

STOP MOTION: SET UP YOUR OBJECTS – TAKE PICTURES – EDIT YOUR FILM!

1. Take your time to set up your objects
2. Take a picture of the scene
3. Modify the scene and take another picture – You’ll never lose your place thanks to the phantom image of the last picture you took!

Once you have taken all your pictures:

4. Put your movie together:
- Make your creations more dynamic by adding images – from your camera, the cartoon image library or your existing photographs.
- Give rhythm to your movie by adding music from the suggested selections.

5. Be proud of your creation – share it!


The exhibition Frame x Frame. The Animated Films of the NFB celebrates the 75th anniversary of the National Film Board of Canada, a unique centre of creation in the world. This organization has helped many filmmakers gain international recognition. NFB productions stand out both because of their technical originality and the relevance of their subject matter.
