Building a clay model

During college i was on a task to create my own clay model i make my clay model and then i will take images with a camera every second and then move the clay model with the most littlest detail then this will make my animation look like it has life inside it.


This mainly takes patience and a little bit of skill because if the character moves to much or doesn't start in the same place as before then it looks jumpy.




I have used final cut pro to import my images then saved the images and then added them to the timeline then i can see the life in the images so i then added a background using chromea key (green screen)

What I did

In college i created a similar animation using a video camera and a whiteboard and worked in a team. The drawings were changed slightly and then we let the camera run for one second then we paused and changed the image slightly and repeated the process and when we played back the footage we had an animated peace of work.

Importance

First time film to create animation in 1906 as the first ever animated movie/film

Audience

Children – oddity for film bluffs

Technology

The technology used was a 35mm film camera pausing using stop motion with little changes creating the life into the drawings making them animated this is the technique.

Flip Books

Flip Books

Flip books are drawings that are slightly changed on the other page until all the drawings are complete then when you flick though the book the drawing comes to life.

Flip books are 12 fps (frames per second)

That use 12 pictures a second

Flip books used to be for the wealthy and not for the poor. 

There are adult flipbooks.

Bird in a cage

Persistence of vision

Twirling disc super imposes images upon each other by means of perpetual phenomenon known as the persistence of vision Our eyes hold on to images for a split second longer than they are actually projected so that a series of quick flashes are perceived.
This means that when you move the image fast enough your eyes hold the image of the bird and you will see the bird in the cage. Examples of this are shown in the images below.
