Margritte Animation

[Yason]

Hello,

I'm new at this forum but I will jump right in. Since a few years I'm very interested in Stop Motion. I love it when something comes alive
During day time I have a job as a freelancer, nothing to do with graphics or animation, so my time for making Stop Motion animation is limited. That's why I make
1 or 2 films every year. Normally one small and one more ambitious.
To start the year proper I finished last weekend a small animation based on a painting by Margritte. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Treachery_of_Images
I made it after I had seen a number of his surreal paintings during my visit at a museum. I got this crazy idea in my head and wanted to see if it would turn out nice. You decide

I like it. Personally I think of that as Claymation rather than Stop Motion. Never the less it is cool. Good job.

Alright, Yason. What're you doing on here (this is Motsy from Digital Spy GD forums under a different name)?
While you're here, get a load of the gallery.

for some reason that reminds me of Ambroise [Brian] in Le Manège enchanté [The Magic Roundabout]

Still 'the description is never the thing described', hey? - nicely done

[only one 'r' in Magritte BTW]

Why not join the fun?
Evil Dead style:-
Join us.....
One of us, one of us...

Seriously though, some of the language on there wouldn't be tolerated on here.
They're not too keen on my efforts an artist/animator over there.

sorry about going off topic, just trying to add a bit of humour. I saw Yason's animation the other night and suggested he get himself over here and with any luck we might convert him to join our cuase as a creative.
The more Xarians the better, eh?
(after a few goes on XPGD7 my computeriised artwork increased and and thanks to to other Xarians anx external sources, I'm ading music to my animations once I get everything sorted). Come on, Yason, get yourself some Xara graphics software and welcome to the party, pal!
I couldn't do anything like what Yason did but it were good.
