iMotion
"iMotion is an intuitive and powerful time-lapse and stop-motion app for iOS." (FIngerLab, 2016)
iMotion is an engaging and exciting tool for students to use in the classroom that allows them to be creative whilst creating stop motion videos. Videos created with iMotion can be downloaded to the device for later viewing, or videos can be uploaded straight to YouTube. iMotion is free to download and does not require an account to create videos.

Below is an example of an iMotion video, recreating the tale of "The Three Billy Goats Gruff" using dinosaur figures

iMotion is an interesting tool that allows students to work both in groups or individually. There are some negatives to it however, such as having to keep the camera located at the same point for the duration which may be difficult if filming for a long time. Despite this negative the videos it produces are great and they are a great way for students to either recreate an event (as seen in the example above) or create a whole new story.
iMotion would be in the modification category of the SAMR model, as students are able to create stop motion videos by simply taking photos and adding them together with iMotion making the process a lot easier and simpler, and the creating category of Bloom's taxonomy as students are able to create new or original videos.
