Question by sarsnik: Animation movie ideas for a school art project?
I am making a movie (with iMovie) for my final art project in one of my classes. I just needed some ideas that I could start with. It can be a short animation or something even more simple, photography, animation, video, whatever. thanks in advance!!

I don’t understand what your question is fully but, if you are using it on a computer program to make an animation check if you can put a video in the background of your film.

IF YOU CAN: a good, fun, idea would be maybe to have an animation in the human world that appears to be following somebody (like yourself)

IF YOU CAN’T you can have the animation get out of your computer program by taking pictures of the screen and having that as the background of your animation and when it escapes it maybe wanders around the street but you will have to change the background every new setting by doing a new project, THEN you can put it together.

I have never used iMovie so description of this file may be useful too… I made one of these before and it was made with the most basic program, pivot stickfigure animator. check it out on my youtube channel (if you want) at

then click on the film animation gone wild.
