Harry's Design-Portfolio

[HarryButt]

The past two days were full of work on that stop-motion film I'm planning to include in my design portfolio, and today I saw it was good (always wanted to say that) so I made this little teaser.
The teaser doesn't show much of the movie itself. Instead it shows the creation process, which as I have learned by now, shouldn't be underestimated at any point of development. With the footage I have left, I could make a little Making Of documentation after I finish the video.
All I can say for now is that the (yet untitled) movie is going to be about 3 minutes long and tells the sad story of a little blob.

Awesome!!!
But how do you get your hands to move so fast?

It's a combination of my uber-1337-skills and video speed at 5000%

Wow, well done Harry Butt. I didn't know you were multi-talented but I'm not surprised . Your teaser did its job!

[HarryButt]

Here are two "production shots" to push the hype.

An early shot of the set's basic background:


And another one of the "stage", where the action is taking place.

As you can see, I'm not going cheap on this. The grass consists of very slim cut paper stripes. I fit them one by one into these paper scratching posts (my cat very soon lost interest on these cheap malaysian productions and returned to our furniture ).
I want my first claymation to be as good as I can do. It's for my portfolio after all.

Yeah, and since I'm pretty much finished with the images, I'm going to put in, I'll have a Best Of here too.























God, this thread is full of self-glorification now...

Ya know (Probably not) I make klaymations also.If you watched my FOTM entry you could see on the side some klaymations that I made. if you watch them, they do have some problems I can't solve.

The only problem I saw with your videos was that they were partially too fast to understand what was going on Anyway, I'm off. Shooting Take#1.
