Creating a project in iStopMotion involves making some preliminary choices about your iStopMotion animated movie's format and selecting your project's beginning settings. Screens and entry boxes walk you through the process and it only takes a few minutes to create a new project and begin the animation process. Here's the process for creating an iStopMotion project.

Difficulty: Moderate

Instructions

Step 1

Open the iStopMotion movie project software.
Step 2

Give your new movie project a name in the name/preset box that appears over the opening screen.
Step 3

Select a preset for your iStopMotion movie project's resolution. The default setting is a 640x480 resolution movie at 12 frames per second, but you can change this to HD, a different non-HD resolution such as DV NTSC, which is a 720x480 full resolution movie, or a preset more compatible with non-U.S. equipment.
Step 4

Decide how many frames per second you want your movie project "filmed" in and enter this number into the frames per second box that appears as soon as you select your iStopMotion preset. Stop motion movie industry standard is 12 frames per second, but you can change the number by entering something different in this box.
Step 5

Click the "Create" button and the preliminary information entry box goes away.
Step 6

Begin your iStopMotion movie project in the blank work area that appears on the screen.
