My latest embroidery animation. I added a digital background using Photoshop, this is probably the most detailed I would want to go with a background. Any more than this detracts from the embroidered aspect.
I also added in some camera close ups, which I really like. It gives you a chance to see the stitching better :D
Damn. This has been at the Museum of the Moving Image in Queens since September!
“LAIKA: Life in Stop Motion invites visitors of all ages to appreciate the painstaking work of stop-motion animation, with eight animation stations equipped with 2-D LAIKA character figures and environments that visitors can use to experiment with and create their own short films, then share and post online. The exhibit also includes puppets, sets, and video clips from all five of the studio’s renowned films.”
Matchbox: mixed media animation of all the little boxes inside my brain (someone hire me to animate a music video pls)
more of my work here and process ramblings under the cut
So yeah this was a ridiculous project about "identity" and so I made my life incredibly complicated by shooting the entire thing in stop motion on a green screen w/ each individual matchbox as a green screen as well. Then animated a million little boxes by hand. Then Added in some 3d stuff bec presumably i'm doing this master's in 3d motion design.
the major success was finishing this without hating the song bec of how many times i had to listen to it while syncing everything up.
im serious tho someone hire me to make silly music videos PLEASE
Most are on Tubi, of course, but I don't think you'll mind that. Get em while they're hot - please dm/pm with any potential triggercontent warnings that you think might be needed.
I especially recommend Mary & Max, Kubo and the Two Strings, Last Unicorn, The Wolf House, Ernest and Celestine, Rock & Rule, Hair High, and Nocturna.
They're all beautiful and absolutely worth your time while they're still on Tubi, Youtube, or just online at all.

How to FINALLY use keyframes and tweening in CSP (or at least I'm way better than before!)
A thousand ways to not animate clouds
I am having so much fun :3 And thank you to everyone who has had such encouraging words, I don't think I would ever pursue animating as much as I have without the kind words from this community <3
~This is a commission for the wonderful @the-laridian !~
just a quick walk. it was a lot of fun working on this and getting used to the lights here. while working on this i've also managed to watch an entire playthrough of technobabylon get started on some new builds, and procured some curious materials for something that's been brewing on the back burners a while.
Just a little bilby sewing her dress. All hand embroidered animation. This was really fun, I was playing around with different textures, achieved through different stitches and fabric for the dress. I also love having the actual sewing needle in there.
When people outside of Australia see this, they usually think this character is a mouse. It’s a bilby! A super cute Australian mammal:
It’s definitely not mouse sized the way that mine is in my animation; that’s just some artistic license.
