hi

I have the cam but i dont have the actors to make live short. So i was thinking Stop-Animation. but i have no idea on that subject. If someone could give some directions on it it would be of great help.

Thanks

I'm assuming you mean stop-motion animation. I've done some in the past and I can tell you that it's extremely tedious and time-consuming, but very rewarding when you see the finished product. Your camcorder must be able to do single frame advance or you'll get an uneven motion. You might want to look at machinima instead. There are some great programs that allow you to make all kinds of movies from stock 3D characters and sets. All you'll need are voice actors.

Here is one of them:

You'll be able to see many more once you queue up this one.

Here's another program I found. I wasn't able to make this one work on my machine, but maybe you'll have more luck.
