PROJECT BACKGROUND

The assignment was simple—create a short stop-motion film, based on any topic and using whatever tools you have available to you. I took a quick inventory of what I could use as subjects, found a box of old action figures, and went to town.

Here’s a storyboard and some set design notes I managed to scribble together:

Due to the quick turnaround time, a lot of this was improvised on the fly—but as a whole I’m pleased with the outcome. There’s a cohesive flow, and even without a narrative, there’s a good sense of progression with a build in action and satisfying close.
