Clay Animation




Me and Tom have completed our Morph animation. It is called Wrath of the Morphtans. We were working with this project for two weeks. We needed to create a morph first, to start our animation. We took the plaster and created two morphs. At the first time they weren’t perfect, but after some time making them better, they were good enough that we could start animating. We took the mini-cameras, plugged them to the Apple computer. We used ‘’I Stop Motion’’ software to do our animation. While we were creating our animation, the morphs haven’t stood still, so sometimes in the video you can see that morphs suddenly change their standing position.
When finally we finished, we needed to edit the video and put some sound effects. We edited with ‘’Final Cut Pro’’ and just because that Tom don’t have much experience how to edit with this software, so the editing is not that good, which by our standards I think should be better, but because I had experience in final cut pro before, I knew how to edit and make some fantastic effects to our video. If we could have more practice, we are surreally can make it better.  It wasn’t hard to find the style of music/soundtrack we were looking for, so as soon we found it, we have included in our animation.
Overall, we are satisfied with our final result, and the whole class really liked it, but I think we can do better by our standards.
