this took me two days to make

rotascoped until my hands cramped up. nearly ever frame was hand drawn. :)

I've been meaning to show my mom GarageBand for a long time.  When we were hanging out on my birthday a few nights ago, it seemed a good time.  We made a little ditty.  Then Major Tom made this great stop-motion animation to it, which I just cut up a bit, et voilà.

When my mom and I sat down to RECord something, we didn't know what story we were going to tell.  We just sang a little something.  And now it's turned into this.  I love when that happens.

A stop-motion remix of the sweet doo-wop diddy 'Mommy & Me' in 483 frames.  The frames are shaky because I had to hold the camera in my teeth to get the still just right.  Too poor for a tripod!

just a quick animation inspired by/ for the Shadow Beings collab. real shadow  altered with homemade lighting rig, shot on my SLR, edited with GIMP/ Windows Movie Maker. - Rachel.

Here is an animatic/very simple animation I made for an idea I had..

It' about people that we find annoying, parasitic, bcs they seem to feed on 

our energy and nerves. Sometimes it's only fair to take a second look and try to understand that they are not the winners in life..

It's done in a simple, girlish cute way to transport the idea but of course can be dealt with differently. Since the file is just sitting on my computer, I thought I might share it ...it might turn into a butterfly after all ;)

Nice to have met u all :)

KoAlaa

P.s: I used german here to mark day1, day2 etc. Hope it's still understandable!

I fixed a part that was looking a bit jumpy and changed the 'Z's at the end because they were bugging me, so ignore the other version! (again, if you've only seen this one there's no sound because it will be part of a bigger project) :) - Rachel

A cheesy stop motion my little cousin and I made for fun. Since I used my webcam, the quality isn't the greatest.

Hopefully it'll be useful for someone :)

Some sound effects would be pretty awesome!

I look a bit silly in this, but I love it all the same. :3

ah there needs to be music to this ._.

thank you all for the wonderful feedback <3 and thankyou times amillion for featuring! <3 <3 

Took long to make this but i am pretty happy with the results..:D 

i used scribbler to make it. i don't know about music? maybe? 

:3 <3

I'm pretty obsessed with animations lately and wanted to try something new. When I animate I think I feel like a little god ^_^, same goes for drawing, writing, taking pictures and singing (ok, not singing...when I sing I just feel like a weapon of mass-destruction, lol :)

Marielv mentioned camera tracking some days ago and while I googled that I stumbled upon clay animation. Then I remembered kittypimms' hevn and urth models and thought this would be a good idea <(^_^<). I also used InkedCanvas', jay-9's and MoiSanom's drawings as models a.o.

There are more than 600 frames and it took me one day just to shoot the whole story @_@.

This is my materialization of the first 5 stanzas: hevn and urth are introduced to the public :P, afterwards they appear together, awake and hug. Their hug turns into a balance (literally:) which is "shaken" all of a sudden. They depart and hevn comes up with a little yellow story, hands it to urth, which turns it into a star. This star makes them see and they hug again o(^_^)o

The second part is just for fun, it shows my tiny "filmset" and the "actors". The black fellow comes and tucks my hand in (I'm asleep:) and the brown fellow switches the light off.

Ah, sorry for the long description!!! I can't help it :P, because I always feel that the description should be directly proportional to the time and effort I invested in something (which is around two days for this) <(^_^)>
