We had fantastic fun creating stop motion videos of some of the Barrhead Heroes we have been learning about: John Shanks, Lady Margaret Glen and Zechariah Heys. Many thanks to Tess and Kim from Eeast Renfrewshire Culture and Leisure for their support! We first created storyboards to detail a significant aspect of the individual’s life, we then created an appropriate background to the support our storytelling before moving on to making the clay models. Finally came the part we’d all been waiting for- using the iPads to make our short stop motion videos. We can’t wait to build upon our stop motion skills in different and ever more complex ways!
