Further Research

Today as I was not getting the fundamental principles of stop motion I decided to stop and do a bit more research below is the questions I am asking myself:

What is stop motion?

What are the basic principles to stop-motion?

The physical laws

Timing

Acceleration and Deceleration

Arcs

Acting

Staging

Poses

A pose or an action exaggeration

Anticipation

Secondary action

Power centres

The best tutorials I have seen so far that have explained and answered my question thoroughly are the tutorials below amazing a must watch tutorial part 1 and part2.

I will use these tutorials as my bible for principles of stop-motion
