Stop Motion suggestions and tips



Hello, when i started to be interested in stop-motion i was wondering wich tecnique the masters were using to make their movies, and a question i asked to myself was: How many picture they use per second? So the first thing came in my mind was to watch part of the movie just forwarding the scene frame by frame and i start to understand the tricks of the stop-motion makers. One of my favourite animations is from "Aardman studios in England" called "Wallace and Grommit" two funny characters with a great style.
I have been watching part of a movie called "A grand day out" and i cought some of the way they make the scenes, they use put the same picture in 3 frames and put a transition between the third and the fourth picture and the same for the sixth and the seventh one and so on, that generates a pleasent and stylish looking. That what they did with that movie cause one of the first, in their new movie the tecnique is changed, have a look frame by frame if you want.thanks for the attention
