Sur Yon Hur: Final

Laundry Day~~~~~

* Software Used: Dragon Stop Motion / After Effet for editting sounds and adding texts
* Time to Construct: 12~15 hurs (the washer and dryer took so long to make.. The one appears in the final animation is my third washer and dryer combo)
*Time to Animate: about 16hrs for filming / about 3 hrs to edit.

* Problem encountered: The hardest part of the physical animation was walk-cycle. Since I didn’t want to drill holes on the ground.. (cuz it’s gonna ruin the set) I used magnets instead of screws and nuts. The magnets worked very well when the puppet stand still on his both feet (the strength of magnets was really good). However, he couldn’t stand still on his one foot, so it was problematic for shooting walk-cycle with his whole body appear. For that reason, I just took close-up shots for walk-cycle. It still looks a little bit akward, but looks better than his whole body shots.

* Challenge: Expressing emotion was very challenging. I think that the anger part was a bit off… or confusing for the viewers.. I want to try different ways of expression of anger for the next time in order to make my final animation look better.
