Okay long story short..I have applied for an art teachers education and I have to do an art test with my application which involves four themes. what I woul like to know is:
1. is there a programmed (free) that will turn a film shot with a mobile or similar into an animated film?

2. what is an easy programme to do a piece of art in that doesn't involve a camera?

If anyone wants to help with the themes bu giving this tired brain a help then they can...lol

Thank you

Hi Boo. If you want to make camera shots into a movie then there are various bits of free software that can make timelapse films for you. Easy piece of software for doing art on... How about Microsoft Paint?

Or you could make an animated gif... (you can do that simply in Photoshop). I did the following for St Valentine's day but it wouldn't animate on 365project

@huvesaker Do you have a shot / shots in mind? I did offer to help you last time and that offer is still open if you wish.

@steampowered I have no idea...many ideas but which do I chose?

You can use GIMP to draw - freeware version of Photoshop (probably version 4 or 5) and I can make .gifs on there too ... That one you load up the images you want to animate as layers on an image and save as a gif

@huvesaker All ideas are good ideas so start putting them down on paper. You have my email address if you want assistance or to run ideas past me if you don't want them on your shots for the day.

I saw a picture this morning (but I am blessed if I can recall whose it was!) showing the chap walking down a railway line, clutching only a baseball bat, towards a huge train. My first thought was "Getting ready to take on the world!" which is another way of saying "My story starts here" to my mind.

How about the coming of spring. Smiles, Is there a river near you than you can take at different points before it hits the sea. Hope these help sorry creativity is not my strong point. OOh how about Boo Vision your town through your eye to the viewfinder. Good luck.

I don't know if this will help you, but this is what I did for a seminar that I give on budgeting. I took a picture of a single drop of water to signify the "beginning" and the water kept growing until I had a stream, then a creek, then river, then ocean (to signify the reaching of the goal).
