[7th CITY]

yeah man i am trying to do one myself...

check this one out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r8JexiISPNk

i just seen this on youtube...pretty good one.

there not to hard to do. basically tons of picture frames put next to each other in a video software. i am going to do one with sony vegas. there might be software/camera's that are good for stop motion video. i have not really checked on it. but i know the basic idea on how to do it.

GOOD LOOKS!


i was gonna attempt it with windows movie maker but it looks like itll be a pain to organize.

ive got an old copy of pinnacle movie softwart v10 i think. but its not vista compatible. maybe i can get a vegas torrent or somethin to test....

for now all i have is a 10 mp digi camera

ive got a dvd cam but its limited on features....

i knew a guy who i used to send music to for his claymation....but he got lazy and gave up

it takes SOOOOO much time to do something decent i cant imagine what its like to be an animator full time.

they probably spend as much time doing a "scene" as we would completing(eq, mix and whatever else) a weeks worth of beats...

google has thatfree modeling software that i thought about trying. i know it wont give me "pixar" type results but if i do it right it can still be something to watch

i used to do it with a webcam software, forget which one, wasnt great video quality but i made some cool stuff i thought.

these are both stop motion videos

both of them using 1000 frames or more

the first one was edited with premier the second was done in after effects

someone should invent a competition where its like competitive-stopmotion..


everyone is setup in front of a camera, and the camera takes pictures automatically every 10 seconds,

they lose points for being caught in the picture, and gain points for the more things they have going on or something hahaha

both of these are really dope did u do them yourself???

[timfromtexas]

yea i shot all the photos and 100% of the idea and creative control was me.. my girlfriend edits video for a living and helped me out with the technical stuff... but like i said i told her can you make it do this.... sweet now make it do this... kinda thing.. the one with the polaroids took about 30 hours to edit and its a little more blah to me the more i watch it... the traffic one took like an hour and a half to edit and its more fun to me.. she just yelled at me for not liking the polaroid one as much but whatevs.. the polaroid one was for a digi photography class and the traffic one was for an animation class... they were both for the same teacher and he is my age and a cool ass cat..

thanks for the props..

how do polaroids figure into a digital photography class

[timfromtexas]

ahh the beauty of aftereffects... the polaroids were only frames that the digi images showed through
