JellyCam
Another suggestion from @diemerpatrick on twitter. This time it is an animation tool in the form of JellyCam. Now JellyCam is specific to either Mac computers or Windows machines so wont run on tablet devices however it is an interesting program.
Basically JellyCam allows teachers (and students) to create an animation using a series of images where the images can be captured using a web cam. So you can create a 2D or 3D model including characters, etc and then animate it by using Stop Motion techniques. This means taking a photo, then moving the objects, then taking another photo, then repeating for every frame in the animation. Think Wallace and Grommit, or Morph (for those of us who remember Morph…..Question is can you remember the children’s TV series he featured in?)
This strikes me as a really interesting bit of software, especially given the inclusion of Onion-Skinning which allows you to see the previous frame when setting up for the next one. Overall I can see lots of possible fun uses of this software particularly with the students in control.
