My former student has been creating some stop-motion videos that are both ingenious and highly entertaining. She was brilliant when I taught her in third grade, but she’s even more impressive seven years later. Please take a moment and check them out. They are sure to bring a smile to your face.
I’m thinking about asking her to create a stop-motion video trailer for my next book, Unexpectedly, Milo, similar to the stop-motion stick drawings she did in the third video. I thought that she might be able to capture the idea of the story and the character of Milo pretty effectively through this medium. And the thought that a former student created the trailer might have some additional appeal to readers and even media outlets.
Now, if I can just convince her to read the book…
