Youtube Trickster’s

Wednesday, February 17th, 2010

This guy keeps pulling out some really crazy videos using some nice youtube tricks.



While we’re on the topic of quality Youtubers, PatrickBoivin has been a long time favourite of mine. His videos consist of really great and professional stop motion animations using figurines, some tutorials and behind the scenes of those animations, as well as some short film productions and many other animation/motion graphics type videos. I just love the camera work in all his productions.

He also made the first youtube ‘game’ which I’ve seen, back in Jan 09. This one may need to be watched/played in a new window.

But for an embedded, here’s one of his stop motions.

T-Shirt WAR

These fellas printed 222 shirts and made an amazingly unique stop motion.

It just goes to show that sometimes, it’s all worth it!

DVS Ad

Sunday, January 10th, 2010

Stop-motion type clips are always cool, and its even better when its done cleanly and professionally.

This ad from DVS skate shoes just looks so awesome, the colours, composition, HD, and quality of editing makes for a superb commercial. Mmmm is it time for new shoes?

Holiday Time is Over :(

Sunday, January 3rd, 2010

Yes, very post-less for a while, notice the dates? Could be due to the holiday season, and all the busyness, distractions, and parties that go a long with it… LOL bottom line is I’ve been pretty lazy and my site hasn’t been touched since I added the mouseover descriptions. Don’t know why though, all it really needs is the content, which most of is already sorted. I guess i just need motivation, and the new year doesn’t bring that :( (NY’s just means fun is over and time to do some work!)

I’ll leave you with this nice short skateboarding film off YouTube. Awesome camera work and editing, shots like these are what make skate films so awesome, the idea for the video is also just genius ;) .

Simple Techniques for adding realism in animation

Wednesday, December 16th, 2009

i just saw this video and just thought how easy it is to make a simple animation look believable with only the camera.

- Depth of field
- Motion Blur
- Camera Shake

is all you need.
Dont get me wrong, the animation itself is quite mesmerizing but these camera techniques just add so much life.
