CA1 (1) Yesterday night...

Yes...the title sort of sounds a little wrong but yesterday night I did something I have not done,for a VERY long time.

I love to do STOP MOTION ANIMATIONS, big and interesting word with a big and interesting meaning. Stop motion animation is the art of taking frame by frame images of objects moving. Like the first picture I take maybe a still ball and the next one is the ball 1cm from its original position and so on. Thus there will be a movement of that ball when the animator compiles the pictures together. Something like this... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s0JaV2O-IY4

I enjoy doing stop motion cause, I am a relatively creative person and I like making comedies without acting so I use toys to do it FOR ME. I usually use LEGO FIGURINES for stop motion like in the video I made. (the above URL)

Yesterday I tried to make a video using LEGO illustrating a guy being teleported into the future to fullfill his destiny, jampacked with funny moments and lightsaber fights, I predict that it may take more than 1200 frames,thus 7minutes long. Yesterday I did 200 frames only. This also shows any form of animation takes a patient and creative animator for it can take weeks to just make 10 minutes of moving objects.

Interesting and engaging recount.

Wish you had elaborated the necessary details, especially the ending. I find the ending abit abrupt.
