Awesome. That would take so much work.

So I've totally seen this same film somewhere around the internet lately..can't remember where tho. But yea as to how to make a film like this? It gets pretty simple...if you just break it down to a series or photographs...which essentially it is, and then set them in a short enough time one after the other it'll create the same movement that was created in this film. If you really want to see a better detail on this just watch that film again but pause it literally every half second and compare the frame to the one before, once you can notice the slightness of change they use per-frame you'll get a better idea as to what to use yourself.

TOTAL HOURS TO MAKE FILM :
246 Hours

Photos Taken:
713

Video’s Created:
1


So here's my beef, how the fuck did it take them 246 hrs to make this video? thats 10 1/4 days. Either it's this dudes first time masking photos (some of them were poor) or he's doing something wrong. I bet they spent 1 day taking the photos, maybe two days of like 6 hrs each day (so the light was the same) but then 200+ to edit? I dunno about that. I only say this because I made a stop go video in highschool that was like 2 minutes long and me and my buddy made it in like 2-3 days of shooting (no more than a couple hrs a day) and then edited it slowly over like a week and yeah we didn't get as fancy as this video, no masking or anything but still, 246 hrs bullshit.

Otherwise, that was mad cool, props the creators, stop go motion is a fucking bitch haha.

Should i film certain tricks and then take stills , or should i use continuous shoot on my camera and get like a progression of pictures
