Rachel told Instagram about her inspiration:
“I’ve always been intrigued by the art of stop-motion. As soon as Instagram released the video feature I started experimenting. It wasn’t long before I posted my first animation and I haven’t stopped since.”
Rachel also credited the Instagram community for being instrumental to her inspiration. “I was instantly overwhelmed by the support and attention my animations received, which made me excited to keep creating more. Everyday I’m looking around for inspiration and I find myself waking up eager to start the next project.”

Are you interested in learning how to create your own stop-motion videos? Here are a few tips from Rachel:
- Film with a tripod or by placing your phone on a glass table and drawing underneath. “You’ll notice with my first animations I was holding my phone while recording and it looks like the Blair Witch Project.”
- Don’t hold back — get out there and create. “Instagram has always been a place for beautiful and artistic photographs, so let’s make videos with the same intent.”
