I was first introduced to the progression animation idea when I saw the work of Andy Martin and his plasticine rhythm workshop. His plasticine rhythm loops are made with stop-motion animation using clay that was built in a progression and used to replace the previous step in the animation to make it grow, change, shrink, etc. I love the way he used his hand to make it apear that his touch causes the changes or motion. | Snowman progression stop-motion animation made from 4 models of the same snowman as seen in the diagram. |
Student Animations:
All the students took a group photo of their snowmen sculptures in a progression and uploaded it to their online art gallery. The project description has a link back to this post and a direct link to the class video also found below. View their art here. |
