I’m VERY excited to see the creative stopmotion projects Jackie will be helping her students create in the next couple weeks! Three years ago I led a summer stopmotion video summer camp for students at the Edmond Fine Arts Institute. (To prevent this, we use Tony Vincent’s instructions.) Our iPad cart is configured with a separate student email account (all iPads use the same one) which permits students to email media files like this OUT from the iPads, but NOT check / read email on the account. Here one of the sample / practice stopmotion videos Jackie and I created together on Thursday, and successfully posted to her Posthaven website. She’s made eight of these so each student group can use one. After I described what we needed for a camera stand, Jackie created these ingenious and effective homemade iPad stands using cardboard and duct tape. Since our “specials” classes at our elementary school have between 22 and 29 students each, we need to typically use 7 or 8 student groups in each class. It’s not possible to create good stopmotion videos without one.

One of the most important supplies needed for a successful stopmotion project is a tripod or stand to hold your stopmotion camera still. Here are some of the highlights of what Jackie and I created and planned to get set for this stopmotion art project in her classroom using an iPad cart. She has been inspired seeing different examples of Stopmotion on YouTube, and asked for my help in finding a good Stopmotion iPad app they could use as well as suggestions for setting up the lesson workflow.

After spring break (this week) I’ll be starting a 2 week unit in STEM class on coding using Scratch software in our computer lab, so Jackie is going to use my class iPad cart for a stopmotion project during that time. Last week our school art teacher Jackie Myers, and I had a very rare opportunity to collaborate during a school day thanks to a morning fifth grade field trip to our district 6th grade academy.

You can download the podcast from the iTunes store or go to douglovesmovies for past shows, bonus episodes and more. His guests have included John Lithgow (in a classic episode devoted to his movies), Jon Hamm, Sarah Silverman, Adam Carolla, Patton Oswalt, Edgar Wright, Zach Galifianakis, and many other smart, funny people, most of whom play the game better than I do. Doug is always funny, and really knows his movies he even crashed Arthur Knight’s class at USC, which I have since inherited, years ago. In any case, it’s fun to play, and enjoyable to listen to. (Some movies are almost impossible to figure out until you hear the names of the top one or two stars.) There is a certain degree of strategy that comes into play to beat your fellow panelists, but there’s no getting around the fact that if you don’t instantly recognize films by their release dates, you’re lost. Then the contestants bid on how many names it will take for them to identify the film- except the names are revealed in the reverse order of their billing.

Here’s how it’s played: Doug presents several imaginative categories of movies (one this past week was “Killem Dafoe,” which means films in which Willem Dafoe was murdered), and offers each player a chance to name a film based on its year of release and a couple of clues from the review in my Leonard Maltin’s Movie Guide. It will come as no surprise to Doug’s regular listeners that I am terrible at the game that bears my name, while Samm is a wonder at it. My fellow guests were talented actor/comedian Samm Levine, who appears with Kevin Pollak on his weekly Kevin Pollak Chat Show, and the quick-witted Jimmy Pardo, who has his own podcast called Never Not Funny.

My most recent episode has just been launched online, and it’s free to download at iTunes or at I should warn the uninitiated that this is a highly irreverent, sometimes R-rated program that’s half movie talk and half.

I made my first appearance on the show and had such a good time I’ve been back twice. Doug was playing this challenging trivia game with a variety of fellow standup comics and movie-buff actor friends for several years before I caught onto it. As often as not, these days, when someone stops me it’s to say how much they love playing “The Leonard Maltin Game” on Doug Benson’s popular podcast Doug Loves Movies.
