Film it Draw it then Flip it!

So many people reached out to me about the flipbookit rotoscope lesson that I decided to create a packaged lesson to walk teachers through all the steps.

This could be used to learn the process yourself or as guide for instruction with your students.

• Transform your video to 24 frames
• Set up your class for drawing one frame each
• Showcase it with a Fliposcope
• Guide, demo, and empower students to work independently or follow along in-class on this engaging collaborative animation over frames of video (rotoscope)
  

Rotoscope animation is when you draw frame by frame over video. The process can be very involved but creates wonderful results. This lesson helps break down the process into a one-drawing contribution from each student that can be played back in a physical flipbook device.

I wrote up the lesson for the Media Arts Issue of School Arts Magazine, March 2022. Read this article here. The online version has two embedded videos that gives you good peek at what you're creating. It's a perfect way to motivate your students in their collaborative efforts.
