9 Brands that are Killing it with Stop Motion Marketing
It might be a little cliché to say that we’re fall-ing in love with stop motion, but it’s true. Beyond working effectively as a social media marketing strategy, stop motions are just so perfect for injecting creativity into your feed. With Instagram (and now Pinterest!) autoplaying upon scroll, it’s a surefire way to add a little personality to entice your viewers— even the ones who aren’t fully paying attention. It only takes 1.7 seconds to capture your audience’s attention —which is why stop motion lends itself so well to marketing. We believe that stop motion marketing is the future, and we’re pretty dang excited about it!
Here at Life Lapse, we truly believe that you can create professional-level stop motion videos right from your phone. You can import photos into the app, add images from a DSLR or point-and-shoot, or (our favorite) shoot stop motion videos directly in-app. Our app allows you to be on the same level as the 87% of businesses that use video as a marketing tool —and you can do it from your couch.
Short on ideas or how to get started? We’ve got plenty of tutorials for you. Seriously. There are so many. And if you’re a little worried about your equipment, here’s how to make a tripod from household items! Stop motion branding is entirely attainable, even for solopreneurs and small businesses.
