All that is needed is a cheap video camera or web cam & a doughnut, toy car, fruit & other easy-to-find household objects to use as subjects. A pack of plasticine & googly eyes is provided for three 'claymation' videos. All instructions are backed up by web tutorials, & sound effects are available to download or can be made at home.
