We used clay and play-doh to make objects for the stop-motion animation videos. Here the students are working with the media.

I went to New York Comic Con yesterday at the Javits Center in Manhattan. It is a four-day event and Thursday was educators day.
As you might expect, there were numerous booths and stands with vendors and publishers, people mulling around in their pop-culture costumes; contests; competitions; classes; panels; movie stars and more.
I attended two panels. The first was on Jewish identity in comics outside the Holocaust, which was sponsored by JewCE (the Jewish Comics Experience) of the Center for Jewish History.
The second panel I attended was on Kids as Content Creators: Engaging Media Savvy Students. This panel was hosted by teachers from Concourse Village Elementary School PS 359 in district 7 in the bronx. The three panelists discussed the comic books, stop motion videos, LEGO robotics, and video games their students made, and showed samples of each. (BTW – It is the same Stop Motion Studio app that we use as well)
P.S. I am now officially a New York Comic Con Educator!
