If you are editing your video on a Mac (is there any other way?) check
out http://www.istopmotion.com for claymation software. If you buy a
video camera make sure it has analog to video conversion like most Sony
Handycams. Means you can plug a VHS VCR or Analog signal into the
camera and it will be digitized by the camera into the computer! I use
it to make DVD's of older VHS tapes or camcorder tapes done on Hi-8 or
regular 8 tape.
