			<content type="html"><![CDATA[The only free program that I can think of is FramebyFrame, but as you said, it's a pretty faulty program, which I completely agree with.(I've had that some crash problem before) I used SAM Animation for quite awhile, and it was a pretty decent program, although it is $30.00 USD. Right now I use iStopmotion which is actually a pretty decent program. If your pretty serious about brickfilming again, I really suggest you save up some good money and invest in a good frame capture program. I'd also advise getting a program called Webcam Settings to control your Webcam's exposure, white balance, focus, etc. It's only $7.00 USD on the App Store. Hope you can find a decent solution.]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[Well I actually think that more profesional animators have a long kept secret that they prefer Mac, although they keep it on the exclusive side of things. No sharing.

Anyway, I was also going to suggest SAM Animation, and I even [i]had[/i] a spare key for it I could have sent your way, but it seems that the company that made that software now doesn't make it anymore.]]></content>

Ah. That's a problem. The market share of Macs versus PCs means that niche programs such as stop motion animators rarely make it over to Apple's side. (Including Monkeyjam which is definitely not available)

I understand you're on a budget but the only real options are iStopMotion or Dragonframe which are certainly not free.]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[The main Free stop motion Program for Mac was FrameByFrame but as you said it is a bit glitchy and it seems it doesn't seem to exist anymore! As an alternative there is very little , You could always install windows (which is possible) but that presents the Risk of viruses.There are free trials of Software Such as iStopmotion . i use SAM animation which is good for chroma keying.

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[I have not made a stop motion video in forever, but I'm tired of not making full length films anymore and I was wondering if some Mac users here could help me out. 

I am trying to find a free Mac program that I can use to animate, I have already tried frame by frame but on my computer it doesn't work, it crashes after about 10 seconds. Also, I'm on a tight budget, as in I'm $30 in debt and I have no job so I'm only able to use free programs. I am looking for a program that lets me do frame capturing, as I don't like the frame-importing method very much. 

Also, please don't tell me to get a PC. Like I said earlier, I have no money, and also I don't want to buy a PC just so I can make animations. 

Thank you.]]></content>
