Puppets!!

Here is the result of 2 hours spent in an incredibly awesome stop motion workshop. I was working with Hannah and Rhys so we each got our own puppet to animate (mine was the short one on the right with the crazy hair). I'd never got to see a stop motion puppet up close before, as when I've done stop motion it's just been using characters I made out of plasticine, and I found it surprising how kind of solid they were, with some of the joints needing a fair amount of pressure to move them. This is definitely a challenging medium to work in, however there's just something really unique about stop motion that sets it apart from other animation styles and I definitely want to do more of it.
