Title: Stop-motion Op2
Post by: dm-horus on February 18, 2006, 07:58:55 AM: In lieu of the reunion I have begun to make a series of videos ala red vs. blue about OP2 using stop-motion. Mostly made out of cardboard cutouts, cotton balls, toothpicks and elmer's glue, I for one welcome our new paper mache` overlords who command the battlefield from their styrofoam command center.

Microwave beams will be made out of pipe cleaners and sparkles.

This will be the main development thread for all future releases.

You guys are dedicated. I've got alot of cardboard... lol

This sounds very pimpin'. Stop-motion takes forever doesn't it? It'd be easier with a regular camera and just taking pictures at regular intervals.

I've got one made already, just not with a skin. You can see what it looks like in the video I am planning on releasing today (if it renders in time).

Post by: BlackBox on February 21, 2006, 06:54:15 PM: Really, I think it would be cool to see a claymation version of OP2. (Except there'd be a lot of detail to do to make a clay lynx or whatever)

As for actually taking the pictures, there is software that lets you do it more easily (iStopMotion comes to mind, but only if you have a yucky mac)

I'm sure windows apps exist that do the same.

Post by: dm-horus on March 11, 2006, 03:05:25 AM: it would be awesome if we could do a serial claymation movie of op2. everyone does a claymation sequence lasting say, 1-5 minutes and then we stitch them together. hrm. ppl need to get some digital cameras and some clay.....
