1. What is qStopMotion? Where can I get it?

qStopMotion is a program for creating stop motion animation movies from pictures you already have on your harddrive and from pictures you import live from a camera.

A stop motion animation is an animation which is built by taking many pictures of some objects while moving it a little between each picture. When these pictures are run you get an animation.

You can download the latest version of qStopMotion from the qStopMotion webpage http://www.qstopmotion.org.
