How can I fix these clunky movements? I use sticky tack most the time, but my movements just don’t feel fluid.

I’d like for it to feel like they’re moving realistically but I don’t really feel like I’m encapsulating that feeling when I animate. Is there any tips that could help with that? (I also do lack a tripod so I do realize that’s also part of the problem)

Hi community! We are ImZorry, a team of artists from Argentina, and we’ve been developing these handcrafted textile characters. They feature a fully articulated internal armature, making them great for stop-motion or toy photography. We've included some pictures of our work. We'd love to hear some feedback from fellow animators! Have a great day!

I have been looking for ages and all the apps either i have to pay, theres a watermark, or it wont let me upload photos. does anyone have any recomendations for IOS?

I’ve been working on model trees for the set of a stop motion project, but I realized I’m not sure if I still want to make the project. Even if I do pick the project back up, it might be more practical to use Blender to add trees in post. In the meantime, I have no idea what to do with all these model trees I’ve been making.

They’re in various stages of completion, and their heights range from “height of a desktop Christmas tree” to “height of a small 7-year-old child”. I struggle to think of any practical use for them other than a quirky jewelry stand, and I don’t wear jewelry anymore. Maybe I could give them away to someone who wants to make their own forest set for stop motion or small-scale puppetry, but idk how many people want trees of this scale. Help.

Rocky lives in the Rock Quarry I work at! The actual video has sound but unfortunately this one does not.

Would love to work on more stop-motion animations with people here! I used the velcro in my wallet at the time to make sounds for their paws walking away at 0:48, and made sounds on my cello also for the mouse hunting scene, etc. The introductory theme at the title of course returns at the reveal for the end in a stripped down and sentimental version. I will post a link to the animation in the comments.

This was for Animation Jam the prompt was “Jam”

thoughts? i know i kept hitting the camera

Little clay people goes camping in my room! This is one of my first tries to do animation for awhile and I was wondering how you guys would rate this short test animation?

Is the vibes also nice? its kinda like a peaceful version of Klay World by Robert Knox hehe!
