The Mothman Presents: Oswald's Nightmare
 

for those of you awaiting my second claymation feature, it is ready. this one took a whole lot more work than the first, the frame rate is twice as fast, so its much more smooth. This one is also more story driven. Also very emotional. i showed it to my art teacher and she teared up a little bit. its strange and surreal, dont try to make sense of it, but here it is. (wait for it to upload enough to watch it without it stopping. you'll apreciate it more that way.)

Dude, that was fuckin' excellent! I've done a handful of stop-motion shorts with action figures and such and I know just how time consuming and tedious that can be. My hat's off to you, really nice job. Very fluid & some creative directorial touches, cool little plot, more gore than half the "horror" films I've seen recently. Good work!

glad you like!

Watched it earlier, Moth, and its great. Kudos!

I hope you are saving them both somewhere for a collection. Excellent work.

Very nice ,Moth. That stop motion ain't easy.

:) aw, thanks guys.
it took freakin forever, so its nice ot get some compliments.
constructive criticism is welcomed as well.

Really cool stuff!!!

Very good, and quite trippy.

Awesome job Mothman, how long did it take you to make it?

couple months.

awwww poor oswald.. :(

A couple months? Damn! 1 image per .5 seconds or what?

well there was long breaks from it. sometimes i wouldnt shoot for a full two weeks.
but yeah. it does take a damn long time. theres a couple thousand pictures in there.

How many frames per second did you use? The animation is very smooth.

Its not measured by frames per second, but id say its around 5 or 6.

What is it measured by? What software are you using?

Im using final cut pro. its measure simply by number that stands for the "duration" of the picture. the last one i made's duration was 5, this one is 3. doesnt sound like a big difference, but it is.

cool. (I use Magix Movie Edit Pro 11 now.) Is there a link to your 1st one somewhere? I don't remember seeing it.

here's all of em.

Great Job, Moth.


Not as hilarious as your first one, but instead you managed to tell a rather sad story. Excellent.

:cool:
