Stop Motion...

Ok - so I'm finally getting around to posting the other site I was talking about in my last blog posting. Does that make sense? Anyway, the other site that I felt was worth checking out was http://www.trick17stopmotion.com/. Essentially, it's a stop motion film contest to be held in a couple weeks in Vancouver. The cool thing about stop motion is that with a camera, some software (which they provide as part of the entrance package) and a little creativity, pretty much anyone can create a stop motion film. For those of you who are interested in trying your hand at it there are tutorials and a number of stop motion films on You Tube to get you started/inspired. Haven't got a clue what I'm talking about? You should check out the following two stop motion films. The first is the recent Sony Bravia commercial which apparently was the largest-scale stop motion film ever made, and the second is a cool (or at least I think it's cool) stop motion film I came across on you tube as well.
Happy creating!
