COURSE: Stop Motion Puppet Fabrication

Are you interested in learning character animation in Stop Motion? First thing you’re going to need is a puppet to animate with! In this 3-day course you will build a stop motion puppet of your own design, and leave with a camera ready puppet for animating. The puppet will be made of aluminum wire and 2-part apoxy, some more dynamic design may require some Super Sculpey and Tin Foil. The 3 days will be broken into:

Day 1 Character Design/Armature Design
Day 2 Sculpting Puppet
Day 3 Painting and finalizing look of puppet

The success of the puppet completion will require some work from home as well. The more work you put in the better your final puppet will be.
