Soldier of the Stones ~ 6FPS Claymation (multi-figure animated!)
Halved speed Stop-motion of man with claw and cleaver versus rock people.
Instead of the usual 12 FPS I usually practice with, we have 6 instead - mostly because of my mistake with animating too fast on the pictures. And because I was working hard on the five props moving around, I got even more careless and had them move one at a time, or at least not as altogether as expected (unless I make the excuse that the rock people don't move in coercion!). So this is the best I can do with what I had available on a whim.
Try not to be so hard on me, because this is my first Claymation in about one or two months since my last unannounced hiatus - and yes, I do breaks more frequently than intended away from consistent uploading. I actually do more than half of them on accident and quite metaphorically fall off the face of the earth (as some creators are in denial of having happen to them...) and I can see how that can stunt my growth on the platform if not experience. But I think my inspiration, drive and motivation will come back once more and I can tune in more animated clay work both quickly and efficiently, even if that follows yet more hiatus down the road. Or failing that, stay tuned for more available clips!
This animation comes before another setup that I was actually supposed to do first, and it would come with all the new and vastly improved kinks and upgrades to my stop-motion animations. Some of these would be changes to experimenting styles like going the jump for 20 FPS, others would be more permanent things like audio (music, SFX, dialogue, etc.) for the work to be more prominent.
One last thing was that this one stop-motion is being released before another setup I meant to do first, but by the time I made that setup I lost touch with my motivation and refused to do my claymation stuff for about a couple months. The setup is for "Rock versus Robot" which includes the caveman, golem and bi..
