BSA124-Class Stopmotion

I think that everyone did a fantatsic job on their stopmotion. Everyone finished!

I really like Edwin and Thomas's one because it was the most different.


BSA124- Editing

Image result for panic gif"

After Effects was surprisingly easy for me to use while editing everything together.

We had to export most of the footage again as an image sequence because there was some corruption glitches on one part of the footage.

I was able to fully edit and create our final product withing 4 hours.

I noticed upon watching back on the projector that there were some audio issues. But I was honestly done editing.

It took three goes to get the credits right and even now they are still to long.

BSA124- Shooting Update

We managed to shoot everything with plenty of time for editing. When editing the first part together I noticed that Bella's hands had been captured on the frames, yet Dragonframe didn't show this.

I spent around 2 hours editing out frame by frame each hand on photoshop before editing the footage all together.

It all worked out thankfully, we only had to reshoot a small amount so I am pretty happy about that.


BSA124- Final Blog Post

Bella and I have created a fully finished stop-motion animation.

Overall I am super happy with how it came out, especially since we got pretty stressed at the start when cameras and dragonframe wouldn't work.

This assessment took a lot of problem solving and learning to complete.

I did all of the editing on After Effects as well as the audio for both the animatic and the final animation.

Bella did all of the puppets and puppet movements.

During the shooting process I took the photos and helped set up the shots.

I also created the backgrounds using Photoshop. I originally planned to paint the backgrounds, but the materials didn't work out as the paint wasn't really fit for it.

BSA127: Final Blog Post

I have fully finished my 2D animation!

Okay so. Overall I am okay with it! I think that over the next few months I want to animate it in a more fluid and rounder style.

I think it would have been better if I had stuck with last semesters animatic, just because I had already got an animatic.

It all worked out in the end and I managed to create a full 2D animation before the deadline.




This class was pretty fun and I enjoyed working with Toon Boom once I knew how to use it.

Next year I know that I will stick to one plan and do it well. I will also keep up with my blogs, because that was something I struggled to do this year.
