There was an error in this gadget. Saturday, 18 June 2011. What a way to be woken up. I feel like I've just got out of jail! It's time to stop the 'Rip Van Winkle' mode and ' flag a blog '. I'll come to 'Th'Owd Towser' shortly but 'Hear now' we've had the Holmfirth Film Festival. And it's Holmfirth Arts Festival. Time again and at the end of the month of June it's Holmfirth Art Week. And the Fringe events plug for ' Light without Heat. W O W .Art Confused.com? And Vanessa Haley who curated the show.

Thursday, 2 April 2009. So begins my attempt at model making. Having never made a puppet I have no idea if what I'm doing is right or wrong, but I'm learning and that's what's important. The armatures are kits bought from animationsupplies.net. Which come with helpful instructions. I've drawn up the armature to scale as a guide. On the drawing the head and pelvis are too small and the legs a little too long so I rectified this when cutting the threaded rod. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Curtocircuito Inter...

Tuesday, 14 April 2009. Storing zeds for future use. By now I hoped to have at least 15 seconds filmed. I have 0 seconds. I unpicked the stitching of the necks and performed what felt like keyhole surgery on the heads. I used Milliput, an epoxy putty, to cement the K&S into the polystyrene and left it over night. In the morning I was pleased to find that it had worked, the heads turned well, but I decided to perform thorough tests before sewing the puppets back together. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Curto...

Tuesday, 28 April 2009. Imagine the music from benny hill. Here's my day distilled to 10 seconds. The backdrop needed rehanging after fixing the foamex sheets as support. Then it needed sticking down. The backlight was faulty and needed replacing.twice. My key light was sorted yesterday and my fill light needed a reflector so I used a peice of polystyrene attatched to a light stand.which proceeded to block this camera's view of the set.

Monday, 27 April 2009. I had two other ideas. One was carpet (pic above), the other was a thick sheet of material (pic below). I think both worked ok, and the carpet had the added advantage of already having holes for tie-downs, but the material just looked better. It was lighter so the puppets stood out and it had no pattern so gave the illusion of infinite space, which is what I was hoping for. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Wednesday, 29 April 2009. Imagine the flight of the bumblebee. Quite a productive day today. 21 seconds down.many more to go. When I started this morning I found that the camera had moved. Minor crisis. The film is one long continuous shot so any camera movement will stand out. Luckily I had taped the tripod down enough to minimize the amount of movement so it was easy to re-align. Did the first bit of string animation today.I forsee future posts about how stupid it was to try and do string in camera.

heartstrings...a short animation: do imps have opposable thumbs?
http://makingheartstrings.blogspot.com/2010/04/do-imps-have-opposable-thumbs.html
Thursday, 1 April 2010. Do imps have opposable thumbs? This award arrived from Stoke Your Fires Festival of Animation. It's ceramic and has a little imp on top giving me the thumbs up…what's not to like? In amongst all the packing pellets was also a signed copy of the Animator's Survival Kit, the extended edition which I don't have. I feel sorry for my old copy as the new one is sat next to it smugly. Has been to LA. It was shown as part of a Flux Screening Programme. In there would be great! Click pictu...

Thursday, 14 January 2010. During January the Knit'n'Purl shorts made with WONKY Films will be on rotation across the country on. The closest one to me is Cardiff so I hope I chance across them in their giant form. I'd enjoy seeing them up there playing away whilst people with John Lewis shopping bags, Starbucks cups and iPhones walk past in ignorance. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
