inspiring stop motion



Address Is Approximate from The Theory on Vimeo.
I chose this video because I like how the person that created the stop motion video who is Tom Jenkins used  different locations from the computer and toys to make the concept of the world's tiniest police chase. This video is inspiring by how Tom Jenkins use innovative and unique ideas for the stop motion video especially the part in the video where background on the computer change to a bridge and make the animation look like the toy is driving underneath the bridge with using the toy car, also the lamps that created a spinning movement looked like police sirens. The type of animation is a Google street view stop motion, the props and techniques that he used are mostly toys and Google street view. The techniques that he used were taking pictures of the places from Google street view which created an illusion that the toy was the driving the toy car through the places that were shown on the computer screen. The things that I could try in my own work that is inspired by the video is to create an unique outcome that links towards the lyrics for my stop motion video and create an illusion or a movement in the text which will make the stop motion video interesting and in timing with the song that I chose for my stop motion video.


Nowhere Near Here from Pahnl on Vimeo.
I chose this video because I like how the video took a creative approach of a dog running in the city of London at night. This video is inspiring by how  Pahnl took so much time and dedication into making the video which turned to an outstanding outcome. The props and techniques that he used into making the stop motion video are, stencils and exposure photography, the way he uses the techniques in the stop motion video are he drawn stencils of the animals that he chose for the video and then he creates light in the stencils by using exposure photography. Which makes the stencils look like bright illuminate cartoon street art animals.The things that I could try in my own work that is inspired by the video is to add bright colourful photos in the middle of my stop motion video so that it creates a different outlook towards the final outcome of the stop motion video.

The PEN Story from PENStory on Vimeo.
I chose this video because I like how the pictures became into a movement that made it look like the photos from the stop motion video came to life. This is inspiring how the pictures tell a story which made the pictures look live like, the props and techniques that have been used in the video were that the pictures from the video was shot each time to create the movement of the photos which gave the video a realistic form. The things that I could try in my own work that is inspired by the video is to take pictures of the text that I created for my own stop motion video and add creative techniques to them so that the video will turn out original yet unique.
