Stop Motion Wednesday: Stop Motion Music

Daniel Neville

I cant quite remember what the exact video was that got me hooked on stop motion animation but im very sure that Lasse Gjertsen's video titled "Amateur" was definitely one of the first. What I still find cool about the short is that every chord he hits is an original frame that has then been edited together. The technique is very different to using a digital SLR and I can imagine actually more of an effort. Check out Lasse's master work below:

Cool no? Lasse has inspired a couple of other people to try their hand at something similar but the only person who has come close to achieving the 12 million views that 'Amateur" has is a video by MysteryGuitarMan - also well worth a watch. Enjoy:
