Naomi: Remember, you will need to take lots of photographs and make really tiny movement between each picture. Naomi: You can choose any object you like, just whatever you have lying around that sparks your imagination! Naomi: OK, pass the tablet! Fingers crossed! Naomi: Jeffrey the baby giraffe trips over that big marble. Gabriella: And then he trips over that big marble. Naomi: I like that idea a lot, so we could have chopstick giraffe with cotton wool ball face! Piya: I think we should use a cotton wool ball for the heads. Naomi: So Jeffrey is a little baby giraffe! I think we can make this into a mummy giraffe, and then this can be Jeffrey! Naomi: First things first we need to decide what object we are going to use, so we've got a selection on the table, which would you like to use? Naomi: Some sticking and fixing things to hold your objects in place, a tablet with a stop-motion app and tripod.
Naomi: Good, lets get creative! You will need. Naomi: Right you three, are you ready to get started with our animation? Naomi: And this is Anushka, and she has a magic eye for colour and style. Naomi: Next up its Gabriella who has some amazing jazz skills! Naomi: This is Piya, and her creative superpower is reading, because knowledge is power! Naomi: Aw I love this challenge! So who’s going to be helping me on this one then? Be playful, enjoy yourself and get creative. Nush: Just remember to use sound to bring out the personalities and the characters. Nush: So your challenge is to create a 30 second stop-motion animation using everyday objects you can find around your home or your school classroom. Nush: but when we put the two together and put a munching noise we then know that the character, the dog, is munching and eating the food. We've created a character and we've given it an action, Nush: Another thing to remember that's very important when animating is sound. If I do this action and I animate it so that the tissue slowly disappears while its munching on it, it will give the illusion that the peg or the dog is eating the tissue. Nush: So I'm thinking this dog wants to find something to eat. Nush: But then I'm thinking I need to make this into a thinking character because its only when you make it into a thinking character that you really bring out a personality. Nush: So lets say this peg- I'm thinking that its going to be a dog because it can move like this. Nush: What I first want to do is look at all the things I can move. Nush: But my favourite things to animate are everyday objects, giving them character and personality. Nush: There are a range of stop-motion animation techniques ranging from animating characters or models or even working with paint or drawings. Naomi: Nush is a BAFTA winning animation director. Naomi: It’s cool isn’t it? Right well I’m not just here to see the incredible things that these guys have done, I want to have a go at creating my own animation, and I know the perfect person to give us some tips! Naomi: Then all those photos are pasted together by editors so that when you play them all back it becomes an animation that tells a story. Naomi: Stop-motion animation is when you take an object or a model like these and move them a tiny amount at a time - so I'm going to make this little mouse wave, so you would capture each movement with a photo. Naomi: This studio is amazing – the team use their creativity to make models and produce stop-motion animations for a whole range of films and adverts. Naomi: Well that was strange! Anyway, I’m here at this animation studio to set you a challenge. Naomi: This isn’t right – I feel a bit peculiar!
