Claymation

The last two weeks during modules we have be creating claymation. We had to start by looking at different examples and finding what worked well. It was best to keep the characters simple and the stories short.

I created a storyboard so that I knew what my characters were going to do. I then painted the background and created my two characters. I then worked hard taking lots of photos so that it looked like my cat was moving.

This is my video I hope you enjoy it.

Today we change our Module classes. For the next 5 weeks we are going to be learning the different techniques and processes for stop-motion.

Here are three short films that use stop-motion.










The next big question is... How do they do it? What is involved in creating a movie?

Here is the behind the scenes video for the well known 'Wallace & Gromit' film.



Our first step in the film making process is to story board our ideas.  We are going to be creating a 1min film so we don't have a lot of time to tell a big story.
