A Sign of the Times - a stop motion animation by adrienne dowling

My first attempt at stop motion animation for a college project.

The brief was to do an animation based on a joke so this was what I produced over a period of about 2 months or so.

I made the character with a wire and K&S skeleton, Sculpey head and feet and the hands were cast in silicone over a wire skeleton.

The set is mostly made with Foamex and Foamcore.

 

It was thrown together in Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects.

The music is the Charlie Chaplin Walk by the South Shore Concert Band.

It's a bit ropey coz i didn't realise until afterwards that the camera was out of focus for most of it! Cringe!! Oh well. And I really can't edit for toffee but for my first animation i'm pretty happy with it.
