![How To Write An Animation Script
In this video we’ll write an animation script, based off of a text. While you could obviously do this with any short bit of text, we’re going to use Ecclesiastes, chapter 3 as our example.
So if you want to follow these videos directly, pull out a handy bible or download the source sheet in the link below to follow along. You can absolutely feel free to use a different 500ish word piece of text if you like. Let’s start.

![How To Record Good Audio For Your Animation
In a professional animation, sound is one of the most important things that makes the piece feel great. That said, we’re learning about process, not making Oscar-winning shorts, so we’re going to teach you how to add your most simple soundtrack using your free stop motion software without making this complicated.
Look around your work space - if it’s a hard floor, big room, echo chamber like this one - demo - maybe find someplace smaller, carpeted, even a coat closet can work great.
Proximity to your phone speaker makes a difference too. Even on my old iPhone, listen to the difference between up close and far away. This sounds far less good than this. Pay attention to how you point your mouth - make it at the microphone. Point the script in front of you.
