I finally gathered all pieces I needed (as well as the time and patience!) to to experiment with what I call Stop Motion Art. I've been wanting to do this for awhile, as mentioned before, but I didn't know how I was gonna go about it. In this video, you will see adjustments being made to further smoothen the visuals as I saw fit.
I added the video in the "Videos" tab (top video), but you will have to watch it on Facebook for now. Should be adding all my videos to YouTube soon so, thanks for your patience.
In case you don't read the description in the video, here it is:
“Faery and Spider” - 1/25/21
A few years back, around the first time I started doing “Time Lapse Art” videos, I entertained the idea of making time lapse art in a different fashion because I wasn’t too pleased with:
.My head getting in the way of the picture.
.Not being able to spin the paper while I draw.
.The results of if I spin the paper while I draw.
.The paper constantly moving in general.
I held off with experimenting until just recently when I finally found a way to achieve what I call “Stop Motion Art”, but would still allow me to do art comfortably. As this movie was my first attempt at this, you will see me making adjustments throughout the movie as I saw fit. Here are a few adjustments I made:
.0:17 Added second lighting. .0
:40 Added glass to keep paper from “flapping”. .0:50 Added corner piece for accuracy and speed. .2:14 Took away some lighting (too reflective).
Starting this project was supposed to be a quick experiment before it turned into a full picture... so in retrospect, I would’ve used a clean piece of paper.
Here are some fun facts about this video:
.I took 1820 pictures.
.Each picture took me around 10 seconds to prepare and shoot.
.It took a little over 5 hours combined JUST to take pictures.
.The art piece itself took around 28 hours to complete.
Enjoy!
