Creating Stop Action Movies

I’m trying to create a stop motion video with iMovie08. In iMovie08 the minimum duration for a still image is 0.3 sec and in iMovie06 it is 0.01sec. It is not possible to create a stop motion video in iMovie08 b/c the duration of each image is too long and it makes the video choppy. Any suggestions besides using iMovie06.

There’s a great Macintosh program for creating stop action movies. Boinx Software’s iStopMotion2. It’s free to try, $49 to buy.
