I found these videos whilst looking for some tutorials on how to make effective stop motion animations. I've dabbled with it only twice, but I've always been part of a group, and it's never been near as ambitious as I want it to look (Quentin Jones inspired). I should probably add why I want to tell my story this way..... because I think my narrative is so 'out there' I didn't want it to become too serious or horror/thriller-esque (genre). I guess my genre is very light-hearted and 'mad', surreal etc to anchor the story. I think her way reflects this bizarre world with things constantly evolving /moving/changing - nothing static. Maybe it's not realistic but I want to be experimental with my animation (I could make things easier for myself if I wanted to) and I hope it works out. Anyway back to to these tutorials... need to learn the basics. So these videos guides you from idea to the final outcome.
SUGGESTED CHECKLIST:
- KEEP IT SIMPLE
- EXPERIMENT/BE PLAYFUL WITH TELLING YOUR STORY
- MAKE A PLAN YOU'LL STICK TOO
- CREATE ANIMATIC
- TIME YOUR SCENES - TO WORK OUT HOW MANY IMAGES YOU NEED TO CREATE YOUR ANIMATION
- ADD AUDIO TO FINALISE THE TIMING
- EVEN LIGHTING
- MATCH STORYBOARD
- SMOOTH MOVEMENT
- FINALISE IT
