Losing My Mind

I did it.

I made an animation using the figure and my forms. It took me many hours and isn't the grandest stop-motion ever made, but I finished it...for now.



I really just began playing with the idea of stop motion, and then a little narrative surfaced. I am pleased that the thought patterns of my work lately is surfacing in this little video. It's fun, a little creepy, but visually appealing. I am not sure why I titled it "Losing My Mind." Sometimes I feel like the main character does. The sky seems to be falling all around you and you feel as if you might lose your head. My goal for this video was simply to making my objects interact with person and environment, and to see what I could do with animation. Make it any narrative you wish, but I enjoyed bringing forms to life.

I foresee more stop motion in my future.

Holly, that is awesome! I love it! Good job, it is visually appealing. I love seeing your little creatures come alive and the use of the human form is a new and interesting element to your work.
