Welcome to The Stop Motion Magic Community

Got stop-motion on my mind. Was going through an old toolbox and found some parts that I used to make an armature years ago.

animateclay What sort of parts? Were they make-shift ball and socket joints? 6 days ago

astigma82 It was a 81 piece solderless terminal kit that I found at an electronics store. I had used pieces from it for hands and feet. Similar to this picture.

I put up a new article in the news section. If you haven't seen Blink-182's Christmas video, it's really well done.

Xiakeyra I have chosen yo set manually if my videos are for children or not. I moved my adult content to another channel, so there is less trouble. So for example if I make a gore animation I upload it to Clay Yandere channel and if I do my Xiyos animations which are more suitable for children, I upload it to Xiakeyra plastilina. 3 weeks ago

animateclay Very interesting idea Xiakeyra. Maybe two channels is something most of us could do as well. It's definitely something to consider. 3 weeks ago

Lukas I was kind of torn on this. So far my animations are pretty much intended for kids. They are completely kid friendly and don't break any the rules. However, I enjoy getting feedback and didn't want to lose my comments. Unfortunately for that I had to switch my videos over to "not for children." 3 weeks ago
