Stop Motion Animation of Falling



For my animation I chose to make a posable figure fall from a drop. I tool a creepy toy puppet I had and made him jump out of the box to scare and trip my character backwards. Before I animated I planned out my shots accordingly on a sheet of paper. I used Richard Williams's book The Animation Survival Kit as reference for the walk cycle, and tried to implement the quarter down at halftime rule for the fall. I reshot the sequence twice because the first time my character jumped up too high. I used copy paste, the stamp tool, and the fill option to edit myself and other markers out of the scene. I took my sound effects from a legal free sound effects website. I cut all the pictures together and added camera move in after effects. Please enjoy the animation!
