Loved being part of this! Thanks for putting this together Simon. If anyone has questions about stop motion, feel free to ask anyone featured in this video for advice by leaving comments, or reach out to your favourite animators!

[@Samurai_Production-117]

Would 16 fps be ok?

[@SonicJohn117]

@@Samurai_Production-117 Yeah go for it! See if that's what works for you

[@GreenSoldierProductions]

Lots of respect to you for helping everyone out, good job man!

[@TheButler542]

What is some advice you have for make films with more of a horror feel?

[@SonicJohn117]

@@TheButler542 So I'd go with less lights (like 1 or 2) to make the atmosphere spooky and keep the background dark. Have a look at some references of either horror movies or even horror themed stop motions, and try to work out what they did to make it look that way. When you only have 1 source of light, it makes lots of shadows everywhere and that's just inherently spooky. Maybe even play around with using coloured light like red as well.

[@JBWFILMS]

This was awesome, glad to learn and relearn a thing or two. Also thanks for featuring my vid, I appreciate it 🤙

[@Danxiky08]

I’m glad I could be a part of this!

The timing on this is perfect! I was just starting a Halo mega stop motion, this will help a lot!

[@thedomainhalo]

So great to hear!

[@Multiversal_Productions]

Oh! this is perfect, i was thinking about giving stop motion a go! haha, but seriously great to see those familiar names teaching the good craft! looking forward to this!

[@thedomainhalo]

Heck yeah! Good luck on your stop motion journey!

[@GreenSoldierProductions]

Awesome video man, lots of respect to everyone who took part in this, I hope it helps everyone out! I would make a tutorial but I don’t really have much time since I’m working on other things, if anyone wants any on the go advice then I can try and help!

[@RoadWarrior_John]

This was a very informative video, great for both beginner or veterans of the hobby with the range and scope the tutorials cover.

[@thelswolves8149]

I can't wait to make some soon, this will help a ton.

[@emilyb7030]

I feel inspiration coming on... 😅 do i need to order some Halo mega construx now? Awesome video!

[@DividedPixels404]

Oh, I still need to start on my Toymationfest entry! I've done plenty of stop-motion for years now, but trying to animate Mega figures at such a small scale feels challenging to me. I'm here for it though. This is the perfect video!

[@lovebionicle]

pretty informative, thanks. it is best tutorial on youtube. so bad that i havent saw it earlier.

[@animationcorner4425]

Sadly I’ll be unable to join this year due to college and training, and I won’t be going back home to my materials til a bit after the due date. I know exactly what I would do for the animation though! Can’t wait to see what people come up with this year!
