Cut Out Animation

Cut out animation is due to all your imagination and how you like to explore mind into something that has an effect. The process of cut out animation is that you choose an magazine or a newspaper and choose different pictures that you enjoy or would like to show in your animation. Terry Gilliam is a great example of the things he does in cut out animation. He uses techniques and has a great effect on the work he does. He uses techniques by experimenting different stuff seeing if they bond collectively.

Me and Arban did one on celebrities and the accessories they wear and have. We used istop motion to change this about with objects that we have cut out. The objects we cut out were things like eyes, trousers and jewellery. We did this by using a camera which was connected to istop motion and we started moving the objects to the way we had set it out. As i recorded arban moved the objects to the sequence we had planned.

My strengths and weaknesses are that I feel confident using istop motion but did feel it did take a while form me to get use to the buttons that were worthy for use when making my sequence. My weakness is that trying to move my hand out of the frame when needed to but then got use to it towards then end.

I found cut out animation very fun and did enjoy it.
