About Me: Used to make Stop Motion Capture shorts a long time ago, before the days of available consumer software. It was a case of taking individual shots, guessing where to place the models (no Onionskinning then) and then downloading into my video edit suite. All very amateur and with no formal training. My interest so far is in the edit and film making process and I used to make and edit amateur documentaries. However having had a break from that I became more and more interested in Stop Motion Capture and now I'm a little obsessed with it if I'm honest. I think it's no more complicated than the fact that you start with a completely inanimate object and via the wonders of technology you turn it into a living, moving creature!
