GO-MOTION

Really getting into a groove animation and lighting-wise--every shot looks better than the one before it. Just goes to show that if you spend every waking moment of your life doing something, you will probably get better at it! Today we experimented with motion-blur for the first time--started off just waggling the cactus around and hoping for the best, then realized that go-motion would probably be more successful because that's an actual technique. Lowered the shutter speed and put the cactus on a slider and voila! Blurriness!

today was like this:

Placing the skulls. THANK YOU to all my nimble-fingered friends who made skulls for me.

CACTUS VOICE

This is Craig Fox, the voice of the corduroy cactus.

If you need a voice actor or another type of actor I highly recommend Craig--he can do it all!
