Stop Motion - Practice with a Bolex

[muzboz]

Haha!  That's well done! Good animation! A nice simple story. Keep it up!

Then you're on your way to Carnegie Hall; 'cuz practice is the best way to there. :)

[WBShepherd]

Very nice work. Now a story to go with that animation would be way cool.

@WBShepherd Well it WAS just practice after all... but thank you :-)

The Film makes it look awesome.

Nice, how many f stops do you need to move if your filming at 64 fps, or 48 fps?

:D Epix

Do you need to adjust exposure any during stop motion?

[AgentMuu]

No, but at the time I was told to set the frame rate as high as possible (64 fps on a bolex) and adjust the exposure accordingly. The flicker, as I eventually found out, was unavoidable without a specialized setup... so while an interesting experiment, it seems much more worthy of the effort to just go digital.

very nice loved it!

[pabstpapster]

that was inspiring. good work.

[AgentMuu]

Thanks! I put blobs of clay on its feet for shoes, so I could make it stand off balance and pretty much stick to the ground. It's a good trick for amateur stop motion :-P
