This thesis shows the process of creating a stop-motion animation based on the picture book My wall. The beginning shows the importance of telling a story through animated films compared to picture books, and explains the concept of children's films and stop-motion animation a little more. Stop-motion animation is then presented as an idea for a future project that could be implemented in educational institutions and what are its advantages for children and their development. Later in the thesis, the concept of stop-motion animation is defined as well as all the important elements that go into its creation, furthermore all types of such animation are described. Given that it is an adaptation of a picture book into animation, there are examples of successful stop-motion animated films based on literary works which are cited as well as reasons why there hasn’t been many adaptations of picture books. The picture book My wall is then shown in its entirety by describing its artistic aspect, the plot and the general message that the story wanted to convey. The last chapter presents the process of making the entire stop-motion animation. It first starts from the initial plan of the entire production process, and gradually shows the process of making the puppets that were used in the animation and the objects in the scenography. Then it shows the process of recording the animation with the created materials. Another thing presented is how taking photographs leads to the illusion of apparent movement of the characters and what illusion of apparent movement is. Recording the scenes for the animation includes preparing the recording space, defining the right recording method and selecting the right frames and scenes that will make up the final animation. The last stage of production includes the digital production of the animation for which it is important to know how the photos are being combined, and how the auditory component is added as an important element in digital production. At the end of the work, the entire project is rounded off by presenting what was learned through the process of making this animation and what was its whole purpose.
