Hue HD Animation Studio - our first animation

We were recently sent this animation studio to try out and review, and today we made our first animation.

It is the simplest thing in the world to set up and use - it is a webcam-based animation kit which is automatically installed when you connect it to the computer.  The software with which you create your animation is user-friendly, and to get to your finished animation is incredibly easy:

• create the backdrop for your animation (we used a sheet of white A4 paper)
• point the webcam at your clay models, or whatever else you are using
• take a photo of your clay model
• move your clay model slightly
• take another photo
• continue in this vein until you come to the end of your short film

You can then edit your animation using the software on the computer.  You can add text and sound and remove or re-arrange frames in the timeline.

We had such fun with this kit, and once you start, it becomes very addictive.  We put together several short animations, some we did together, some Betty did on her own, and now I am itching to get to work on my own masterpiece once the kids are in bed.

The kit comes in several different colours and is compatible with both PCs and Macs.  I would totally recommend this product to anyone who might be interested in creating their own animations - check out the product in more detail by clicking HERE
