Here is a (very brief) clip of something I'm kind of working on on the the side. Yes, I know... Am I a productive student or what? I've done one stop motion before, for a school project, and I've always been a little fascinated with them. Despite the fact that they are pretty time-consuming, and a mistake or two can ruin an entire clip and send your patience/sanity spiraling into a deep dark hole of frustration and face-palming, they can be pretty fun to play with as well. The one I'm working on right now is for a song that runs for about 3 1/2 minutes, and I've finished about 38 seconds. The translates into roughly 3+ hours of (slightly sloppy) work. Fun, right?
Anyways, the one I'm doing now is done all on my Nikon D60, so it's not exactly ideal, and very rough, but it's working out alright so far. The one below was done entirely on my old point and shoot camera, which had a stop motion movie maker setting, which was extremely convenient, and looks a bit nicer.
Gone Going by Jack Johnson (stop motion)
Hopefully I'll finish this current one soon this month eventually. Meanwhile, I hope you enjoyed this video, and the new semester isn't kicking your butt too hard already.
P.S. Don't forget to check out the movie page in the side bar (if you like movies and stuff), as I've seen a few more in the last week. :)
