Stop motion workshop.

In this workshop we were taught about how the animation is made up of frames.
For the mind to convert these frames into what looks like a movie, the mind has to process at least 12 frames per second. 
The faster and smoother the animation/movie is, the more frames per second it has.


In this workshop we had some cartoon toys and a camera hooked up to some stop motion software. We had to continuously take pictures of the movement of the toys in the actions we wanted them to make in the movie. 


After doing this workshop i had decided that this is what i wanted to do in my final animation. 
So i started looking at ways to incorporate this into my work.
After looking at Aardman Animations, and how they created plastercine characters i decided to take this approach.
