2010 The Animation Workshop

My Bachelorfilm from The Animation Workshop. Set to the song "Slow Show" by The National, who were kind enough to allow me to use their music. It is a non-commercial short film, intended for festivals.

It is shot in the forests surrounding Viborg, Denmark. My main inspiration was victorian litterature, and "Boxer" by the national. It was painful to finish, as shooting stop motion in the forest at night for longer periods turned out to offer alot of problems :) But it was also great fun and adventure.

Target

Even though the uploader states that it might be done with special effects, we believe it was done using stop motion.  But, you can judge for yourself.  Enjoy!

An ad for Target Australia. It looks like stop motion (although maybe it's done with special effects.)

Sam's garage needs cleaning...

Published on Jun 9, 2013

This is a short stop motion film set in a 1/10 scale diorama I have built. The main character is a Sam Fisher action figure from the Splinter Cell games. It's a simple little story of him moving into his new house and setting up his garage.
My main interest is building scale radio control off road vehicles. This project started as a bit of a side interest to be used to display my 4x4 builds, but has quickly taken prime position of my projects and has taken on a whirlwind life of its own! 
Except for a handful of items, I have built everything myself from scratch using modeling plastic, wood and some everyday household items. Stop motion is a great way to express ideas that may not otherwise be possible on a low budget in film. This is my first real stop motion and I have to say....I'm hooked!!
The stills were taken with a Nikon D3100 and it was produced using iMovie. It took around 15 hours to produce the two and a half minute film.

You can see the build of the diorama on several RC forum sites:
