Topic: Recent Stop motion tests

Hello everyone I'm new to the community and have a few clips of lego stop motion for people to view. I still need to add voices and sounds to most videos but you can see how my stop motion has improved from my first video to my most recent. Any and all pointers for my next video would be well welcome. The playlist of my videos oldest to newest is at youtube:

Not bad, actually! In Bob's Cabin, there is hardly any light flicker, but there are a few prop/set bumps, and you really will want to raise the framerate. What camera/software do you use to film?

Re: Recent Stop motion tests

I would say the most important thing would be increasing the frame rate and then make sure the camera doesn't move around too much.

I use my canon rebel t3 to take the photos while its on my tripod. I just use windows live movie maker to throw the projects together, how ever in the fall when I attend my school again I'm going to ask if I can use their sound effects and software to edit some of my work.

Yes I plan on doing just that. how ever at the moment Im hindered by my memory card and i just wanted to do it all in one go. when I get larger memory card and have more time on my hands I plan to pay a lot more attention to detail.
