Clay Animation
In todays lesson we were given a variety of clay colours and had to design a character for our clay animation that we will shoot. I decided to start on a base for the model and created a worm like shape which would make it easier for me to create flowing movement with it when it comes to shooting the animation.
The colours i used were black, white, green and pink. I used a scalpul type tool to smoothen the edges and get the correcty amount of clay for each body part.
After making the actual model i had to add wire skeleton to be able to animate the character without it falling to pieces which is called an armature.
