Review on iStopMotion by Rick Ross

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great tool in learning filmmaking and screenwriting

I like that it allows you to take photos or video of yourself with your iPhone/iPad camera while using this app! It's very easy for anyone who has limited technical skills to make great looking short films (or long ones!). There is one limitation however - if you aren't logged into their website through Safari then there are no options available when uploading movies from an iOS device (you can only upload them directly via iTunes). You have access to everything right at home as well as online so it makes sharing really simple. We've been able to show students how to work within Final Cut Pro but also understand how we could shoot our own material without needing complicated editing software.
