Other Stop Motion Clay Animation

In terms of inspiration for my 3D model, I actually thought a lot about the work by Lee Hardcastle.

I believe I've mentioned him before, back in my first module. He's basically an indie animator who specialises mainly in stop-motion claymation. They are mostly very dark and gory comedic shorts (with an upcoming feature film, Spook Train) with very odd looking characters. The claymation really suits the awkward yet surreal style of the characters, as well as the contrasting tone of humour and gore.



This was the style I went with as I was making the model. The crudeness of the style is rather easy to implicate for first-timers like myself.
