This Kapow Computing teacher video demonstrates how pupils can enhance their stop-motion animations using editing tools in Microsoft Photos. It explains how to slow down an animation by adjusting the frame rate using the settings cog and frames-per-second slider, allowing pupils to fine-tune timing for clearer, smoother movement. The video also shows how to repeat sections of the animation by selecting and duplicating frames, encouraging experimentation with rhythm and motion.

This video is part of Kapow Primary’s Computing scheme – videos. It helps teachers support pupils in developing technical and creative skills by using editing tools to improve digital outcomes. With clear modelling and step-by-step instructions, it prepares teachers to guide pupils in reviewing, refining, and repeating elements of their animations to achieve their intended effect.
