Have you ever wondered where to begin with stop motion animation? Obviously, there are very advanced techniques, programs and equipment, but for the absolute beginner who wants to try their skills and improve them, here are a bunch of beginner basics that cost nothing and anyone can attempt. It includes things like frame rate, simple special effects and recording/layering audio. Hopefully it helps someone who is a curious starter.

Nice. Thanks will look into it

Just keep in mind that it is for the absolute beginner. That's why I keep it very simple and use stuff everyone has easy made access to. More will come down the road. For this quick stop motion I never even worried much about sets or stuff like that. I am slowly working on another for handling simple flying if you don't have a program for green screening or really know how to do that very well. Hopefully this gives some easy options to get people started.
