MakerSpace: Making Movie Magic with Tweens and Teens in the Library
Later today I’m giving a webinar with the Florida Library Webinars on Making Movies with Tweens and Teens. Below is the powerpoint and a few additional links I have found to get you started. I’m not incredibly great at making movies, but this is a good tool to get you started with the basics. This is one of my tweens and teens favorite things to do and we’re learning together. The pictures of my Stop Motion Lego Station are from Maker Mondays at The Public Library of Mount Vernon and Knox County (OH).
