Stop Motion Animation Software

It's that wonderful time of year again when first year ND Art & Design (Interactive Media) students are getting into their stop motion animation production unit. It is good to see that some students are so enthusiastic about it they even came in on Friday when they had no timetabled lessons.

The high level of interest means that some students have even begun to practice the techniques at home.

Free Stop Motion Animation Software

So that you can experiment and enjoy doing stop motion animation at home what follows is a list of FREE software to help you with your productions. None of it comes with any guarantee, and you download and install at your own risk blah blah blah, but you get the gist.
