INDOMATION - A stop-motion animated short film

instagram: / thedrumms
Through hand-built sets, custom-painted action figures and over 90 hours of painstaking animation, “Indomation” is a whimsical tribute to the filmmakers and artists who brought us the Jurassic franchise - a series of films that has inspired countless artists and storytellers, myself included, from across the globe.
The first stories I ever told were as a kid in the backyard with my Jurassic Park toys. Like so many others, that original film provoked my imagination and would ultimately lead me down the path to becoming a filmmaker. It’s fitting then that my first animated short film would feature Mattel’s Indoraptor figure, a toy that children today are no doubt bringing to life in their own imaginations.
I hope you'll enjoy watching the film as much as I did making it.

Just because something took a lot of time and effort doesnt mean its automatically good or you should automatically like it. I think the animation was great, but people are allowed to dislike it aswell.

[@jacobstaten2366]

I like the video, but just because somebody doesn't does not mean they should be required to simply because effort was put in. I'm sure lots of people are involved in writing, recording, mixing, editing, and distributing some of the worst products. Effort is novelty, but result is all that really matters in a finished product.

[@MTWC]

Jacob Staten Completely agree! Hopefully this film will result in smiles and a good few minutes of entertainment.

Favorite part about this video was how the set was one big rotating piece; it gave the animation a unique style that you wouldn't really find anywhere else. I hope to see more from you in the future :)

[@traceandgarretvlogs7509]

I was thinking the same thing

[@mimah1015]

Like in the Kingsman movies fight scenes.

[@BatChainPuller]

Not since Ray Harryhausen's work on 1981's Clash of the Titans has stop animation made me feel a legitimate nervous tension. Great pacing, sense of visual storytelling, physical momentum, use of light, and sound effects. You made me genuinely worried that the little wooden man wouldnt survive the attack by the dinosaur figure.

[@MTWC]

Bat Chain Puller so glad those feelings were translated. The hardest part of stop-motion with a short film like this is the pacing and timing of it all. So glad it’s noticed and felt, and I appreciate the comment.

[@SeekerKC]

Clash of the Titans (1981) is an easy favorite of mine, as well. It still holds up!

[@Myuutsuu85]

It's only in movies/stories, that predators would let go of their prey, that is already in their grasp, just to go after something else. But to be fair, in the end, that "irrational" behavour is very well explained. This animation is very impressive

[@epoc6643]

Myuutsuu85 it’s probably because he smelled that pizza, and maybe it had meat in it. You know how pizza gives off that scent that makes your mouth drool? Dinosaurs also have good noses, so they probably would choose a said meat-lovers pizza over a human that can fight back, it’s called easy prey. What your saying makes sense too though, good point.

[@Quetzalcoatl_Feathered_Serpent]

@@epoc6643 There is also the fact that the Indoraptor and raptors in general in the JP verse are highly intelligent animals that have up to human level intelligence meaning they are likely to do more irrational things then say a normal predator.

Not only is the animation great, but you expertly subverted a genre that has grown in the stop-motion community, where it seems like every animation is a comedy sketch.
