How it works

Snap a photo, move the toy, snap again. String the photos together and they start to move.

  1. Snap

    Set up what you want to animate and take a photo.

  2. Move

    Change its position or pose just a little.

  3. Snap again

    Take the next photo. The previous one shows through faintly, so lining up is easy.
