Circle Circle Dot Dot - Jamie Kennedy and Stu Stone - Lego Animation

 

Created using Anasazi Stop Motion Animator (frame capture), Adobe Premiere (editing), photoshop (any effects not done in-camera) and Goldwave (audio recording/editing).
Cameras used; Intel CS330 (the better looking stuff) and Intel CS110 (which has been modified for extreme macro focus)

 

From Oblong Pictures WINNER!! of Justin Sandercoe's "most innovative use of a guitar" competition. :)

To answer some of the more commonly asked questions:

The music was written specially for the film by Loic Desjardins. It doesn't have a name that I know of and it's not available anywhere besides this film at the moment.

I used a Panasonic NV-GS280 camcorder, Stop Motion Pro, Photoshop and Sony Vegas to make the film. And some Lego. My other Lego films were shot with a Logitech QuickCam Pro 4000 webcam - a pretty cheap alternative.

It's all stop motion - 15 frames per second, so around 1800 frames altogether. I filmed it over about three days, then spent about a day fiddling about editing and masking and stuff.

There's a reason why Planet TR-57 is the galactic dumping ground for Clone Troopers who don't quite fit in. http://www.PlanetTR57.com/

This pilot episode was the proof-of-concept for the series, and its success has inspired us to push forward with the full-fledged web series.

Our first experiment with stop-motion and greenscreen, the pilot episode taught us the economy of movement and the value of a well-lit set.

The pilot features a MOC (My Own Creation) by Chris Wunz of the Clone Wars-era Heavy Cannon. The cannon has a working worm-gear which allowed us to easily animate the cannon movements in the short.

Keshen8 used a Sony HDR-SR16 when making this but nowadays he is using a Sony XR-550V for making his stop motion animation movies. His Youtube channel is worth checking out here.

Stop Motion Animation Breaking News

JackBoots On WhiteHall !

Jackboots on Whitehall looks like it is going to be a real fun stop motion animation movie. Due to be released any day now, it is a satirical alternative take on the historical events of World War II. In this alternative comical history the Nazis seize the UK capitol, London. The good old "Brits" have to band together at Hadrian's Wall (a landmark in London) in order to halt the German invasion.

The movie's creators and directors, UK brothers Edward and Rory McHenry claim this movie is the first feature to use animatronic puppets to assist in the stop motion animation process.

I love this one with the toy soldiers ( GI Joe's) and the sherman tank etc. The animation set is perfect for the scene. It is not often you see a stop motion make outdoors to such good effect.

Early Claymation MoviesHistory of Stop Motion Animation
Stop motion animation has been around for a long time, almost as long as traditional film-making. Originally stop motion involved animating objects which included the animated movement of any non-drawn objects such as toys, blocks or any rigid inanimate object you care to mention. This was quickly followed by cel animation. And then animators experimented with clay animation ( claymation ) and puppet animation which is what you may be familiar with in Wallace and Gromit and so forth. Some early examples of stop motion films and techniques can be seen in the “The Humpty Dumpty Circus” (1898) and in “Fun in a Bakery Shop” (1902). In 1907 “The Haunted Hotel” was a very successful movie with the cinema audience of the time. In 1912 one of the first claymation movies using stop motion was released to great critical acclaim. It was called “Modeling Extraordinary” In 1916, the first woman animator, Helena Smith Dayton, began experimenting with clay stop motion. She released her first film in 1917, Romeo and Juliet. December of 1916, brought the first of Willie Hopkin's 54 episodes of "Miracles in Mud" to the big screen.

Clay Animation Wallace and Gromit

Wallace and Gromit are the main characters in the British Stop Motion animated short films, a series of ten short-animated claymation sequences, and a feature-length film by Nick Park of Aardman Animation. All the characters were made from moulded plasticine modelling clay on metal armatures, and filmed with stop motion clay animation or sometimes called Claymation.
