Introduction
I can hardly believe it’s been six years since we created our Adventure in Unst stop motion animation. Where has the time gone? We created the animation using a Hue Animation Studio kit we had been sent for review.
Our short film was played, and fairly well-received, in the local Shetland Screenplay that year too. Afterwards, I went on to help two local schools create award-winning environmental videos.
Hue Animation Studio
This animation kit has gone on to win numerous awards. They’ve been racking them up year after year, and rightly so too. The kit is remarkably easy to use and contains everything you need to create stop motion animated movies at home or in the classroom.
This all-in-one animation kit is the perfect gift to encourage creativity, cooperation and imagination for kids of all ages and abilities. It’s a toy which grows with a child for unlimited play possibilities.
Whether you’re making a LEGO brickfilm with lasers and explosions; filming a claymation movie or watching a flower bloom using time-lapse photography, you can bring anything to life in minutes with the easy-to-use software.
