I was bored today and I finally got my tripod from DP's crib. (His mom so hooked me up.) Anyways, I set up my digital camera on the tripod and made a small test animation using my Yoshimitsu figure. Here it is, 21 frames, a whole nothin' of a second long. A little choppy but it's my first animation. This took me an hour.
California Raisins aint got nothin' on me...
I tried stop motion with legos once, I got bored and it got really fucking choppy at the end.
*LOL* Awesome, hon! 😃
I've gotta try that...I think I'll take the cam and tripod outside tomorrow and film the clouds or something. :tongue:
awesome stuff JJ! ^_^
That's cool. You should try something more complicated, if you don't mind wasting hours of your life.
Hey, that's cool. How'd you make it a gif? I thought gifs could only handle up to 32 colors...
Only if by 32 you mean 256.
Oh, well then I understand now.
So if you took just an hour on it JJ then think how long it is just to make a 1/2 hour movie😱
Make it do something that loops well and make it your avatar.
Well, I would.
AHH!! IT"S GONNA KILL ME!!!
That's neat. I always wanted to do something like that. I've got enough time on my hands.
i tried it once with my gundam models a couple years ago, but it came out all choppy because the joints wouldnt stay in position. i had to compensate...
Maybe you could get the Paul figure from my mom too, and then you could do one of Paul kicking Yoshi's ass.... just like old times. 😉
Pretty cool though. I saw the pic before the text and thought, "What the... weird new movie or somethin'?" :thumbsup:

Or better yet, I could do one of Yoshi sidestepping one of Paul's slow-ass moves, and Rainbow Dropping the living snot out of him...just like old times. :thumbsup:
Yeah the longest part was downloading the pics off my camera because all my camera has is a serial port. :tongue:
Movie 2! (421k) {3.5 sec}
:thumbsup:
Not quite 88 miles per hour but it's a start.
Lol, I love the Delorean one. Ive tried doing stop motion before with lego and plastecine as well but gave up...i was like 8 though so thats why I gave up casue it was too much work XD. Pretty sweet man, I wanna see more!
I could make them alot quicker if I could figure out a way to mass convert the jpg's to gif's...
PSP has a batch convert option, as does the freeware program Infranview.
Stop-motion animation is fun, but it takes patience. You can easily do it with an ordinary camcorder, just press the record button twice. You can do a lot with that technique. Also, if you have a webcam, there are freeware programs that you can use to make animation, be sure to look for "onion skinning" (it allows you to see the previous frame as a ghost image).
Those are cool man. I have never tryed thet, I don't a digital camera anyways. If I did, I would make a carboard building and make my two Rampage toys destroy it. I have Boris and Ruby from World Tour.
