Topic: A top down 2D animation usnig not bricks :)

I wanted to do something that offered more freedom than bricks so I did a 2D top-down animation.  It was hard work and maybe never again.  mini/lol

I couldn't find anything quite like this when researching the topic.  Enjoy.

This is great! It's such a creative idea. Also, it was animated very well.

This is a sort of stop motion, I thought it was called clay on glass, but googling that seems to prove me wrong, it doesn't seem like there is a clear name for this type of animation so it's hard to find examples. Your film does look really good though, I've wanted to try this style of animation but haven't got around to messing with it.

Being a subscriber of yours, I remember seeing this when you uploaded it last September. It's very well done. I also like your choice of music. It is very atmospheric, and suites the tone of the film!

Thanks Sloth.  I wanted to try something that had more freedom than bricks.  It's challenging but fun.  Also 24 fps which is obviously harder.

Thanks for being a subscriber William.  I didn't realise BiM had an "Other" forum until just now so - there you go.  mini/smile
