How to play
Split into teams of up to five. Give each team a digital camera, Lego figures, a tripod, and a story to tell. Teams photograph their scene, moving the Lego slightly between each shot. Once complete, compile the photos in a video editor (e.g. iMovie) to create the stop motion film. Finish with a short film festival and pop some popcorn.
