Tracking shot test

[Cocotatam]

Nice, could you make a Tutorial of this?

[SpiderSock]

@Cocotatam That's a distinct possibility.

[brsties]

cool! did u make it while making "Assassin"?

[SpiderSock]

@brsties Yep.

[brsties]

@SpiderSock why did u not use it in your film?

[SpiderSock]

@brsties It wasn't needed.

[codyfst]

[FuegoTortuga]

[LEGO97city]

[konstantin1917]

How did you make the paper? Did you have to actually draw it/make it on the computer, or did it come in a LEGO set?

[TheLegoDude007]

lol the papers upside down

[draugsvoll01]

Wow! The television and the couch is adorable!

[fgv112]

Whats your walk cycle?

[snapfilmproductions]

How many frames per second?

[JRPictureProductions]

Brilliant animation. No technical flaws visible.

[RoxCoxCz]

Very good animation.

[zombieX111222333]

holy crap dude how many frames (you dont need to answer that lol)

[hoosie10101]

sry to ask but how do you do that moving part

[SpiderSock]

I made a simple dolly for the webcam using some everyday bricks and flat plates.

[kreza1]

how many frames per step would you say?

[MaxVegasProductions]

that looks to be about the 6 step method.

[kreza1]

yer good 1.i could never get mine tht smooth

[legomouse]

cool!

[Spidertspidert]

Ok did you use a quickcam pro 9000. Cause it looks a lot like one.

[SpiderSock]

yes.

[Spidertspidert]

I'm getting a quickcam pro 9000 today how close do you think it can get until it loses focus?

PS:sry for asking so much ques.

[SpiderSock]

On the tightest focus setting, I can get 2.5-3 cm away from a minifigure with it still being in focus. You may be able to get better if you play around with lighting.

[Spidertspidert]

Thankyou

[Spidertspidert]

Oh wait one more question what did you use to do the tracking shot tracks,wheels etc.

[SpiderSock]

I mounted my webcam on an 8x8 plate which I sat on rails made from flat plates. Then it was simply a case of using a ruler to move it a tiny increment each frame. I used 1mm/frame for this, although i have a hunch that a fraction of an inch would work better.

[norjansonjoe]

cool

[recneps456]

awsome animation man

[mrsandar1]

Yeah, how do you do that?

[SpiderSock]

stop motion animation.

[recneps456]

i think he means how do you make the wall move slower thene the guy go faster and make it lock cool

[GAMEFAN501]

perfect!

[Nathand301]

cool set

[xxxfancypantsxxx]

how do you do that?

[SpiderSock]

by taking a picture, moving the characters a tiny bit, taking another picture, then repeating the process so that when you play back the images in sequence, it appears to be moving.

[xxxfancypantsxxx]

very clever...

[Nathand301]

nice tracking shot

[Nathand301]

cool set

[Nellysplash]

[EmperorProductions]
