About This Activity
Minecraft Dungeons is an action-adventure game inspired by classic dungeon crawlers, where you’ll constantly discover new tools and items that will help you defeat a ruthless swarm of new-and-nasty mobs. You’ll fight or flee through canyons, swamps and – of course – mines! Campers gather movie inspiration from Minecraft Dungeons to create their own Stop Motion Animation video using Minecraft Movie Creator kits. Stop motion animation is a fun filming technique in which objects (such as mini figures) are photographed in a series of slightly different positions so that the objects seem to move. Then using ZU3D software and webcams, campers will create their own Stop Motion Video with mini-figures Steve, Alex, Creeper, Charged Creeper and Enderman, full of action and suspense. Learn storyboard techniques, character development, film angles, lighting, special effects, and methods to add titles and rolling credits! Take home ZU3D Stop Motion Animation Kit: software licenses, webcam, green screen, modeling clay, mini-set background, and handbook. A flash drive for camper’s video creations is also included.
