Stop-motion Animation with Wood!

We had a lot of fun hosting a stop motion animation station at Open MAKE. The topic for this month was Wood, so we collected materials made of “natural” wood.


The station was a mess of shavings, twigs, wood chips, bark, and wood veneer, etc., but it was exciting to see what people came up with using the natural materials that we prepared. Here is some examples of our stop motion animation with wood!


The motion is dynamic and it is really fun to watch.


… Does it look like a wild boar?


A bit violent but makes you laugh.

We hope we’ll do more on the floor this month!

    These are beautiful. It’s amazing how much the materials available for each month affect the way the movies turn out. I think we need to bring out materials from all four themes and animate the worlds colliding. Maker faire?

    Yes yes, Maker faire!
    But metal, cardboard, plastic and wood colliding animation would be chaotic! Giving people four options and letting them choose one favorite material might be good too. I’m curious what’s would be the most popular.
