Pivot+Man



This is an easy way of creatively designing an animation. By moving the features of the stick man you can create a sequence of movements. [|pivot man]



It is a great way of learning through doing as it can be kept simple with the standard stick man and movements and then advanced by changing the shape and size of the stickman, speed and adding another. Children may also like to add a scene for the stickman to act within. it is a good program to develop with and progress towards more difficult forms of animation.

Possible ideas: provide the children with a scene - dance, gym... make letter shapes. If you are ambitious, the final .GIF movies can be brought into MS Moviemaker, where pupi;s can add titles, music and even dialogue.
