Helllllo there I'm Amy :) I am a graduate with a 2:1 degree in Stop Motion animation. My main specialty is creating characters and environments using fabric such as felt. This blog is just a place for me to share some of my work. I have a long way to go still but, I'm determined to improve my skills and someday make a living out of something I'm passionate about :) I hope you all enjoy viewing my blog and if anyone has any questions, feel free to ask.

HAND IN TODAY!!

I am finally ready to submit for my final hand in of 3rd year! (Well kinda of..) The film isn't 100% finished.. but I plan to work on it afterwards to get it done for myself. I still have a few things to do such as rig removal and re-shooting certain scenes, but particular segments of my film I am very pleased with and I would happily include them in a showreel in the near future.

But for the time being here's some finalised shots.






































I hope you like what you see! More updates soon!

Some screenshots for you!!

Although I have been animating for the past few weeks (sorry if I haven't posted anything about that by the way :P) I'm still not ready to post any animation as of yet.

So I thought I'd share some screenshots for now!

Here they are!                                                                                                                                                                    

                           
                                                   

           




                         
Filming is coming along okay but I still have a fair bit to do which is getting a bit of a worry now! :S I have about 5 weeks until my final deadline so I hope that everything will turn out okay! Well I shouldn't say I hope. I should be saying I CAN DOOOOOO THIS but I won't get ahead of myself :)

More posts coming soon!

Adding teeth to my monster :3


       



To make the teeth for my monster, I cut out pieces of funky foam and shaped them into triangles. I then sewed them into position inside the mouth. Really pleased with how this looks at the moment.

More puppet building! Little critters coming together :)

Like in my last post, here are a few more pictures of my other of creature to appear in my film.


As before I padded out the body with foam, cut it to shape and then felted it to get...


This!


He looks different to my other creatures due to the fact he has more of a personality and is a bigger contribution to the story. 

                                     

Here he is in comparison with my other creature puppet. I think they look good together I just hope everything comes together once I start animating which I hope to start as soon as possible!!
