Start with the moments that tell the story
Bring a photographed stop-motion sequence in its original order. Pick the takes that make the subject clear, including a strong opening and a complete ending. These choices give Shorty a useful starting point for the edit.
Give Shorty the creative direction
Join the frames in sequence and use deliberate holds for important poses.
Try a 30-second 9:16 edit as a starting point. Include the exact title or closing message you want on screen. Add a reference when you want to show the pace, captions or mood.
Try this editing prompt
Create a 30-second 9:16 video from my a photographed stop-motion sequence in its original order. Join the frames in sequence and use deliberate holds for important poses. Use my supplied wording for titles. Supply enough source frames for the movement; the edit does not generate in-between images.
Make the next version more specific
Supply enough source frames for the movement; the edit does not generate in-between images.
Play the first cut and pick the change that would help the story most. Name the moment, describe the result you want and tell Shorty what to keep. A note such as “hold the final product shot longer” gives the revision a clear direction.
