Building A Stop Motion Space For My Daughter

My Minifig
Photo-A-Day #4397

My Daughter has caught the Stop Motion bug. We started with the program Stop Motion Explosion on my computer and Eva made a couple of Stop Motion movies with our Modibots.

This past weekend I was at Philly BrickfFest Live where I met Dave Pickett from Brick 101. I bought his book The LEGO Animation Book. He even signed it and that thrilled Eva to no end.

When I got home I looked around my office and decided to move the studio back upstairs but also build in some space where Eva could work on her Stop Motion Creations as well.

LEGO Star Wars Surprise

Polaroid SnapTouch
Photo-A-Day #4383

I’m getting things ready for our Spring Break Trip up to New Hampshire. I will be bringing along the Polaroid SnapTouch camera and the Cube+ and the Zip. The kids saw me playing with them and they wanted to try it out, so they let me take their photo with the SnapTouch. It isn’t be best camera but it is meant to print out 2X3 images on heat transfer paper so they don’t need to be high detail, but they aren’t too bad.

Like I said, we’re off on vacation for Spring Break next week and we’re not going to be doing a whole lot other than being together and having fun. So, I think that it is finally time to break out some of my LEGO Star Wars sets that I have been collecting for years. The kids are old enough to work together to make Luke’s X-Wing Fighter!
