Mariel Montales' First Stop Motion Animation

Posted by mmariel | 7:09 PM | 11 comments
This was my first try at a stop motion animation. I placed the camera down on to the table and placed my clay family down. I took a give or take thirty-five pictures in total. This was supposed to depict a mother reading a book of some sort and the father looking at it too as it caught his eyes while passing by. The child at first was laying down staring into space when some magical toys had popped out of nowhere ready to be played with. First the plane, train and blocks, then what his heart most desired, the car. As he begins playing with the car the toys vanish just as fast as they had appeared. The conclusion of this six second video, that I had just stretched out into a million years, is that he loses his beloved car and is devastated as much as a small child would be (which in this case is very little). I do think this is beyond fabulous, but next time I will try to work with a better substance that doesn't fall down as much as this cheap clay did. Also I would try not to change the positions so drastically, but then again I did have a photo limit to this one.

    I like how you took your photos because it didn't move much. It was steady.

    I like how you used the clay and kept the camera still!

    I love how you made your props yourself and how well your figures moved. Really well put together. :)
