My 10 year old son has been working on making stop-motion videos and short films for a couple of years now. He's produced some good stuff, considering his age and resources (and his dad's complete ignorance--at 10 I was running through the woods decked out in camo shooting squirrels with my .410 and convincing my step-mom to stew them up), but still has a lot to learn. He does some of it with his cousin that attends a regional arts school (she's in these videos).

This is without doubt the most important thing in the world to him, and I try to encourage it every way I know how. If you would take a couple of minutes to watch these two (it's a series of 2, about 10 minutes total), they all would get a lot of excitement from seeing the views go up. I'm not in the videos

The two shorts are about two kids that get attacked and transformed by the infamous Tree Man, a vampire-like arbor-beast.


And if you have any kids or grandkids in the same age range that you think would find this interesting, ask them to follow his channel. It's kinda cheezy sometimes, but he loves it.

I viewed. Very creative. Just think, when the kid hits Hollywood, you can be in the entourage.

C'mon. You're the guy with the rifle in Treeman 2.
Admit it.
The boy has a solid grasp of iMovie .
Good job!

I'm not quite that tall and handsome lol. That's the father of the red-heads.

I watched them, kind of campy, B movieish. I liked them, I have a thing for B movies.

I say for a 10 year old, it was fairly well done. Keep it up and they might just make it.

ARman

I thought they were quite good. Nice to see kids working on something because they want to. Well done!

I was impressed with the first movie. Seriously. I'm not just giving lip service.

Considering the limitations of having just one camera and non-professional make-up and effects, the acting was impressive and the shots were good and well thought out. That took a lot of detailing.

The second video was cutish but that's because of the two cute girls. But even they were well-directed. Very well done. Far from amateurish.

I probably won't be able to go back to sleep because I am spooked. Good job, kids.

Very cool. Gave a like on both video's. Very creative. Like you, I damn sure wasn't doing anything like this at 10. He's on his way.

Done.

Excellent.

That's just great. Very well done.

Well done and very creative!

done....creative kids!!

We watched it. My 2 year old girl clapped after the first ended. No applause for the second, but she got a kick out of the pig and the dog.

Liked and subscribed...Good job!

I'll have my son like and follow as well this evening. He watches a lot of Youtube videos (he just turned 13).

I appreciate the time.

But more than anything, I appreciate seeing his face light up when he saw his views went from 24 when he went to bed to around 80 when he looked this morning. You guys really made his day!

Just watched them both. Pretty good videos
