This Kapow Computing video supports teachers in showing the children how to enhance their stop-motion animations using editing tools in Microsoft Photos.

The video demonstrates how to slow down an animation by adjusting the frame rate using the settings cog and frames-per-second slider, allowing teachers to model fine-tuning timing for clearer, smoother movement. It also shows how to repeat sections of the animation by selecting and duplicating frames, providing step-by-step guidance for teachers to support the children in experimenting with rhythm and motion and refining their digital creations.

This video is part of Kapow Primary’s Computing videos, providing teachers with step-by-step guidance to model editing tools and support the children in reviewing, refining and improving their animations.
