    Great stuff dude! Real accessible. That's something I struggle with when explaining animation, I take so much stuff for granted that I forget to explain a lot of it.

    Thank you so much for making this video. I’m a huge fan of stop motion, and have been since I first saw a replay of The 7th Voyage of Sinbad in the theater ages ago as a kid. The thing that always keeps me from attempting to make my own is struggling with a terrible degree of perfectionism. But after watching this video, I am beginning to understand that it’s ok to start simple and to have imperfect expectations.

Watching your stopmotions you've already done at the start of the video was so amazing how they were so smooth and clean they were! This just shows how long you've been doing your job, and I just think you're awesome! Carry on making the incredible content you already are! 😊😊😊

    4:55 - in regards to making sure your phone doesn’t move while snapping photos … if you have an OTG cable… or one of those lightning to usb adapters for your iPhone… you can connect a usb keyboard to it, and control the shutter button that way. I’ve used that before in the past, and it helps me keep the camera still because every time I tap the screen to hit the shutter button, it moves slightly. Also, Stop Motion Studio has the very useful feature called Onion Skin, which helps seeing the past photo so you know how far to move each time.

    For my first attempt on an animation, it wasn't that bad, I struggled to keep the camera still because a few times when I tap the picture button, it moved a little bit so it's not perfect but I think I can fix that. So I will try it again and try to fix the camera movements. But thanks for helping me get started, that's really helpful.
