Animation Workshop

I took part in an animation workshop run by Mark Charlton who is responsible for the 'Gold Thread' video by Passenger. In the workshop I learnt about different animation techniques, for example stop motion and pixilation animation. We were shown how each technique works and then had the opportunity to try them ourselves. Here is a video of our tryouts for each technique:

We were then split off into groups, asked to choose our preferred animation technique and then create our own, short section of a music video. We chose to use stop motion for our music video. We created all the cut outs ourselves and produced them by hand in the time slot that we were given.

Here is our final product:
