This Stop-Motion Mario Classroom Version is the Best School Project

The stop-motion Mario classroom adventure is an epic combination of everyone's favorite game and the incredible magic of stop-motion animation.

Mario runs around in a school-set adventure which involves tunnels, mushrooms and coins. This video is such a great project! It was creative and well executed and a good, quick laugh. The stop-motion Mario classroom video makes me want to do the same in the Trend Hunter office.
