Stop Motion Practice

A collection of different stop motions projects/ practices. See details below:

Book Worm
I asked for a random audio clip about book worms, and Harry Critchley delivered. The Book Worm was produced to practice speech and expression using stop motion animation.

Duck Armature
A friend challenged me to model an image he found, leading to this fun plasticine model of a duck which had a bit of a fall during bath time. Figuring out the different mouths for lip sync was a challenge - beaks are quite different to human mouths!

"Armature" may be a strong word to describe this model, however, the duck has an internal foil and wire skeleton under the plasticine which makes the model much lighter and allows for easy head rotation.

Head Person
This short Claymation video was made to experiment with animating solely with clay - very experimental, but the process was great fun.

Louise
This armature is the most complex model I've created so far using only wire, terminal strips, foil, and plasticine (plus a small amount of fabric for clothing). I made them to demonstrate alternative cheaper methods of producing stop motion animation.
