Stop Motion Animation - N300 - final



This is the same as before, I've just gone back add added sound and titles. I get to make another one of these in the next couple of weeks. Should be fun.

Stop Motion Animation - N300 - rough draft



This is a project for one of my classes.
The premise of this video is perfect for any parent that has kids and knows what it's like to constantly pick up their toys every day. In a perfect world, these toys would pick themselves up and put themselves away; beds would make themselves. The list could go on and on, but there is a good start. So, in this video, I took 400 pictures and tried to make it look like the stuffed animals were putting themselves away and then I made Jazilyn's bed "make itself". It took me a long time to take the pictures and put together the movie - which makes me respect all stop motion animators; their patience intrigues me.

Audio Compilation Project - N265

Sound Compilation Project for N265 by conga_j


Instructions:
Create a musical medley of 5 different songs, from 5 different CD’s, by 5 different composers, artists, or groups of your choice. The selections must be from different styles of music.
The songs must have good use of transitions between each selection.
Transitional techniques include: Fade in, Fade out and transitional sounds from snap server. You will need to make sure that the songs sound like they belong together on the same CD.

This project must meet the following requirements:

1. Work with the audio files no less than 192kbps. The best will be uncompressed audio files if you have some.
2. Playing Duration: No less than (2) minutes and no more then (3) minutes.
3. Submit it under the assignments tab Compilation and mastering project as an MP3 192kbps.

The above is the criteria I had to follow while making this piece. I used the following five songs:
"Made To Measure" - Umphrey's Mcgee (Mantis)
"Don't Pull Me Over" - Tom Petty (Mojo)
"Sun, Moon, and Stars" - Thievery Corporation (Covert Operations)
"The Widow" - The Mars Volta (Frances the Mute)
"Gotta Jibboo" - Phish (Farmhouse)

I also used licensed free sound effects from IUPUI's SNAP server.
