If it's your first attempt, especially if you're working with kids, choose the "actors" for the film first. In this case, the actors are inanimate objects that you'll be using to create your movie. Your best bet is to start off with just one or two actors, but there's no limit to what you can use:
- stuffed animals
- LEGO figures
- origami creations
- clay sculptures
- action figures
- food (vegetables, cereal, macaroni, candy, etc.)
- rocks
- fashion dolls
- refrigerator magnets
- die cast cars
- Christmas ornaments
There are no rules here, but I have a few guidelines to make your life easier. Choose objects that:
- are easily moved
- can stand on their own (you don't want to have to hold them up while you're trying to take a picture of them)
