Process

Initial meeting: a call or a chat to discuss the idea/concept/task and details;
Concept creation: I’ll put together some ideas that fit the brief, and send them to you;
Storyboard: moving from the approved concepts I will create the storyboard. The visuals will become very specific so that you will know what to expect! If you already have one, then - great, I will move from it.
Preproduction: once the storyboards are approved I will start producing the props: to cut the paper or felt, to model the clay, to illustrate assets, etc., whatever the project requires!
Animation: The props are ready and I start shooting hundreds of photos to bring our concept to life. This is a magic part which takes time and patience. I will keep you updated along the way.
Post production: once the animation is done, I will work on the final touches to the video to make it look even better.
Music and Sounds: if you don't have the prepared piece of music and sounds, I can find them for you, and add your VO if you have one.
Delivery: Voilà! You project is ready to be shared with the world, and to get likes, comments, feedbacks and bring sales.

FAQs

  • What is stop-motion animation?

    It is a filmmaking technique in which the animator manipulates the physical objects, moves them in small increments, takes photo, moves again, takes photo, and so on. As a result, when the series of images is taken and played back, we see it as a movie, an independent motion. Such animation can be filmed at different frame rates, but the most popular ones are 12/15/24 FPS (frames per second).

  • What things/objects can be animated in stop-motion?

    Any sort of physical product can be translated into stop-motion (from coffee beans to clothes), so stop-motion is perfect for showcasing different products. If there is no product/physical object but service to be explained, or an invitation to be sent, a family/company story to be told, a music clip, or film credits, then it could be done with paper, felt, clay, plasticine or any other material which work better with the concept and the brand. The props will be carefully crafted and animated to meet the customer's needs. We can even animate people in stop-motion (called pixelation) if the models are required.

  • What information do I need to get started with the work?

    I need to understand the following things: - What kind of animation are you looking for (examples, references if you have any)? - Information about your company or brand (website, social media accounts, etc.)? - Desired deadline? - Product delivery (in case if it's a product animation, then I need it physically).

  • Why to choose stop-motion?

    Because it is a very special technic which is great to animate any type of objects or abstract ideas and concepts. Stop-motion is all about magic and nostalgia, something that brings us back to childhood and grabs our attention immediately. It can be heartwarming and heartbreaking, and never leaves viewers indifferent.

  • What is the price for stop-motion work?

    The price is variable and depends on many factors: - timing; - materials/props (sometimes a lot of props are supposed to be produced); - technical issues of shooting; - Deadlines (stop-motion is very time-consuming technic, so tight deadlines are rather stressful in this case); - The price is always discussible for each individual case.

What's included

  • A piece of stop-motion animation (for the product, services or events)

    The hight-quality animated video produced according to the technical task. Quality: HD/4K or another; Sound: your VO, music piece if you have any, or sounds (it depends on the project); Subtitles: if needed.
