Pulp Motion
May 18, 2008This is a fun program for the Mac, allowing you to integrate movies, images and sound files to create a multimedia presentation. There are lots of templates – I would suggest choosing a template that doesn’t overemphasize the background graphics. I like the fact that you can export as a large movie file.
Apart from being a special way of presenting students’ work, this programme is essentially a means of making small documentaries, lending itself to post-production work for students. As an exercise, you could upload a series of raw files and movies onto a server or VLE, which students could access to edit and make a presentation as part of their coursework using Pulp Motion.
Below, I have posted a example of a presentation of work produced by Year 7 students in response to Yinka Sonibare’s ‘Alien Nation’ art works:
