Part of Disney Imagicademy’s innovative suite of products, the Storymation Studio app and kit help children explore these creative arts skills and concepts:
● Experiment with art materials and techniques to create movies.
● Dramatize stories through stop motion animation.
● Discover how music can enhance mood and emotion in a movie.
Features:
● Create Disney-inspired movies! This app is designed to work with the Storymation Studio kit, which includes everything you need for your stop motion movie: posable armatures, molds, clay, backgrounds and characters from your favorite Disney movies, tutorials, and a stand for your Apple device! The Storymation Studio kit is not included with the app and must be purchased separately.
● Experiment and explore. Use the clay, molds, characters, and backgrounds from the Storymation Studio kit to tell fun, creative stories. You can even incorporate your own drawings, paintings, photos, or toys in your movies.
● Capture movie frames with a clap of your hands! Once your Apple device is set up on the stand in front of the Storymation Studio stage, you can go hands-free when you’re filming your stop motion movie. Just clap your hands each time you’re ready to take your shot!
● Add artistic flair and finishing touches. Apply filters that will make your stop motion movies look vintage, noir, modern, bright, and more! You can also add music and other environmental features like lightning, snow, or rain to make your creations just the way you imagined! Remember to add a creative title and a Disney-inspired title screen!

This is a great product for kids, my daughter and her friend love it and i love helping them make little movies. But there are a few major issues. 1. If you mess up a frame because they move the stand or make a noise (which sets the camera off) while moving the pieces, there us no way to go back or delete the previous frame. So if you spend 15min on a movie and get your hand in the shot at the very end, you will have to start all over. Very annoying. 2. If you mess up and want to start over you have to close the app down completely and restart it as there is no way to exit out once you start. Also very annoying. 3. If you click on any of the effects at the end and decide you don't want any of them in the movie, too bad, once you select one you have to choose one, there is no option to choose none or go back. 4. No back button on any of the selection screens. If you accidentally choose music or an effect and go to the next screen thats it. So you spend 30min creating a video and you can either start over or deal with the selection. 5. No option to turn off the "clap to snap" function which allows you to take a photo by clapping. It's a cool feature in theory but any noise whatsoever sets it off. Plus, kids get excited and clap all the time so its just constantly taking pictures at not just clapping but even a giggle thats a little too loud or a slap on the table. Super annoying. Like I said, this is a great tool for kids to get creative and have fun but the process can be exhausting because the app is very poorly made.
My kid loves it but it's frustrating

You can't delete single frames and you can't share your creation.
The fix for the crashing issue
Thisdood
The app is still crashing on our iPad. We are on 9.0.2 on the iPad so we know it's compatible. The app crashes and won't save the movie my kids make
My kid loves it,but a few issues:

1. Screen freezes. 2.Can't save until you finish it. One time it froze when my kid was making a big new movie, it was so far one of the best made and she had to shutdown the iPad and it didn't save and she got really mad.
Sound issues

App is cute but the sound for the movies only plays through the ear piece speaker and not the phone's main speaker.
Crashing every time

Great program. Unfortunately it crashes every time you use it. Can not complete any projects. My kids love it but are very sad since all their creativity is lost every attempt. Very disappointed Disney
Very Limited

You can't focus on just the story board. The background is clearly visible in the movie. Limited on choices for music and there isn't an option to add your own.
Great app, but...

This app is great but there are some things you need to fix. My little sister just got the animation kit for Christmas, she was so excited. We were shooting an Olaf movie. It was really cute! Until of course, we messed up. On this game, you cannot undo your mistakes! Please fix! One other thing you need to fix is the sound. It would be very cool if you could get the characters to talk. My sister wrote an entire script by hand, only to find she couldn't add in the voices. Not saying you have to, but it would make the experience more fun. Other than that, do not change a thing! This game is amazing
