Episode 15 – Tax-Free Time – Stop Motion Animation
Photography, Video June 23rd, 2008This is a short movie I did for a competition. It features stop motion animation using istopmotion for Macintosh OSX ($49). This entire movie was done in 48 hours from idea to final edit, including sound effects and foley, voiceover, and an elaborate title sequence done with a still camera and quicktime pro in a technique similar to the time lapse episode. The lighting is right out of episode 2, all work lights and diffusion. So here is an example of my ideas at work.

Hey!!
It´s very cool. I think the lighting could be better (at the video part) but it´s a good work for 48 hours. The lego toys always give good ideas.
If you do something like that again, you could use motion blur for the action scenes.
Good luke (I´m a fan of your site)
