Stop Motion Animation (Claymation)

A Recap Of Some Of My Favorite Personal Projects From The Past 2 Years While Learning This Art From

#stopmotionanimation #claymation #clayanimation #stopmotion #animatedvideos

Commissioned by Apple. “I discovered this sub-genre of stop-motion, and became obsessed with learning how to create these time-lapse sculptures.” #ShotoniPhone by Ellard D. @ellard_devane

Music: ‘Moonrise over Spirit Lake’ by @_gladiating

VICE ID—BTS PART 1: Cutting Up Clay & Taking A Picture After Every Slice…

Lastly A Very Special Thanks To The Team @Forelandcatskill for generously providing me with a private work space for all my animation projects this past summer-None of which could have been accomplished without your help 💜

NYT Op Ed Piece BTS Part2

The Iconic @nytimes Logo was a fun challenge to take on. It required very precise measurements and careful handling of the pre-assembled sculpture pieces.

It was an honor to work with both @patreon and @nytopinion on this very important and relevant video essay. With an excellent delivery by the one and only@jackconte 🫡

If you haven’t seen it the full video—find it in my “client work” highlights. Part 3 Soon 💜

Strata Experiment #3589

Making an animation look better with editing is a long time stop motion trick. Messing around with 3D sculpture shapes on the outside of the block is another that’s worth exploring more…

BTS Part 1 Of the NYT logo animation.

The “strata brain” portion of this block required much careful attention, as the shot needed to match the live action video that this animation transitions into.

While the stratacut was plasticine modeling clay, this post catalogues my 1st time working with polymer clay.

Here I had the fun task of supplying the creative team with 10 identical “life size”brains that were featured in the opening portion of the video.

I initially made them out of air dry clay… and to my delight nearly all 10 of them crumbed and broke after a weeks drying time 🙃

So I technically made 20 brains but who’s counting?
😎🔫

Part duex soon

Thanks to the team at:
@nytopinion @patreon @joesmith2386 @amjosk
For trusting me with such a cool and unique project 🙌
