Making Animation table for 2D clay animation...HELP!
Re: Making Animation table for 2D clay animation...HELP!
do you mean a 2d table or a place to put your puppets on...
if u mean a place for puppets i suggest you tell me how big u want it..... if your talking about a life size desk youll have to buy one
if your talking about a twoD table i suggest you to either use cardboard and cutout a a table or wood and cut out a table.....
if your talking about a mini table for puppets i suggest you buy a piece of wood roughly the size of a brick and cut out a rectangle starting an inch away from the sides and at exactly the front of the brick of wood. stop cutting when you reach an inch away from the back.... walla mini desk.

Hmm... it seems we need some more information. Are you just looking to build a surface to animate on? If so just go out and buy a table from a store like Goodwill. It will be a lot easier than making one. You won't have to deal with making the table level and the wobbling of the legs. But if woodworking is your cup of tea go for it. There should be plenty of plans available on the web for various tables. Doesn't seem too difficult, a flat piece of wood on top of 4 legs right?

Hey Travis, we talked about this on our live show a couple of weeks ago. I made some sketches during the show to describe the basics. You can sort of see how I build my setup for the Plum Crazies here.
