Vimeo-er Vander Lemes is celebrating some new companions for the year 2015, the type who are never at a loss for words – books! In this fun little animation made with iStopMotion for iPad and Final Cut Pro, Vander’s books take on a new challenge. It’s a real page-turner!

Vander’s animation is a perfect example of what you can put together without even leaving the house for supplies. Do you collect books? Magazines? Baseball cards? Stuffed animals? Postcards? Try documenting your own hobby or collection shot by shot with iStopMotion. Maybe it will inspire someone else to discover a new “companion”!
