Stop-motion Animation explores how all the elements of film-making - camera work design
colour lighting editing music and storytelling - come together in this unique art form. With
tips and suggestions to help you get the most out of your films and with examples from some of
the masters of the craft Barry Purves shows how to make the most of the movement characters
and stories that typify stop-motion. With dozens of beautiful new examples from around the
world this new edition includes a project in each chapter with pointers on finding a story
and characters developing a script and storyboard constructing puppets and dealing with the
practicalities of film-making. These projects combine to lead you through the creation of your
first one-minute stop-motion animation.
