Learning through Play: Experimenting with Gifs

Gif created from 4 webcam photos edited in Pixlr.
I've been experimenting with gifs. Gifs are a great way to generate very quick stop motion animations. As an art teacher, experimentation with new media, techniques, and materials allows for new project ideas and tweaking of old projects. It will take a bit more time to decide how or when I will use gifs in art class, but I'm excited about playing with something new.
