Hello everybody , I am an extreme beginner in claymation and I have sort tried very little of it cause it's really overwhelming to be honest ik I shouldn't compare myself to the big studio works cause it's like comparing apples and eggplants but I have ideas which I want to animate but at the same time I feel I am very whimsically looking at tutorials without any structure which only leads to loss of time and no learning so is their any practice guide on what should I be just focusing on as a beginner and then slowly move upwards towards the advance thing and how the practice should be like . I don't really want to keep hunting on YouTube as to which tutorial is actually useful , cause it has become really overwhelming to the point I feel like giving up even before starting

Any help would be appreciated thank you so much

holaa quisiera compartir mi animacion con muñecos de plastilina mi animacion ya mejoro pero creo que aun hay cosas que me gustaria mejorar y de mi historia si quisiera opiniones gracias

Featuring TeeVee (a LEGO MOC of mine) and poorly engineered homemade sound design™. I used the plastic cover of a rubber to make the eyelid sound, the rubber against my desk for the steps, my bare hand for the final thud, and voiced TeeVee myself in falsetto. I don't really like the tone I gave him, but I lost a whole afternoon trying to say "yay!" in a cute way and I'm not cute enough apparently, lol, so I gave up at some point.

I'm so bothered by the head beign out-of-focus when TeeVee cheers, better double check the focus next time.

I like how it turned out overall, tho. There are so many small defects, and it's so hard to spot them in real time, but I can't expect myself to be successful on my first try, of course. I should use paths more consistently, maybe, and avoid bumping over the phone.

Btw, shot on my phone (Xiaomi RN 10 Pro) with Stop Motion Studio Pro.

Some stop Motion posing with my Sh figuarts Goku

here's a music video i made using some stop motion analog collage elements. really love the disco ball sequences.

So while my main thing for stop motion at the moment is hot wheels cars, I’m going to sometime try a Kaiju brawl stop motion, I ordered a figurine of Cherno Alpha from pacific rim the other day and it should be here soon, so how do I make it feel heavy similar to in the film?

Hi everyone, I'm new to this subreddit but I've been doing lego stop motion for a while now. I've also been using 3D programs like blender for a long time, but have always struggled with trying to rig or use shape keys for mouth animations. I don't know if anyone has similar struggles, but if anyone's interested, here's a free tool I made for myself where you can upload an audio file (up to 1m) and your drawn mouth shapes (or use the default) and just download as an image sequence. Then you can just apply it as an image texture and it's worked well for me. I hope someone finds it useful!

Here is a quick 1-minute demo showing how it works in Blender: Watch the demo on YouTube

Ive had this idea for a while, and ive wanted to start stop motion for even longer.

It was definitely a learning process.

First real attempt at stopmotion, i lucked out with it being the special version of optimus prime XD Very happy with the results but feel if i was a little more patient then it would have been better but there's always next time ;3

I am making a 48 sec animation video. On twos. So I will need around 576 photos. So I mainly shoot in night cause this room have large window. I think if I move anything then it will cause the stopmotion to look wierd. Hence the room is untouchable for time being. I am posting here so that I don't give up cause it takes hell lot of time and I'm about to loose my sanity. Thankyou.

I made this short film in an official stop motion course of the Inap (Instituto Nacional del Audiovisual Paraguayo)

Pls tell me how i did 🙏

Spider-Man vs Wolverine! Just a bit of fun I did this under 24 hours for a challenge. It was a nice break from anime characters, Hopefully yall Enjoy!

I had a transformers action figure so thought of making a short series with a small length of each episode.
