- Zoetrope kits available now! www.4-mation.co.uk
Kit unboxing video • 4-Mation Zoetrope Kit ... (with optional Frogs V2 animation set)
Video also shows kit assembly - I can do it in 5 minutes! but it should take most people less than 1/2 hour.
The animation was printed on a Form2 - and it has been much improved since this video - (better swallow, larger starting fish, and hollowing for better printing) which you can see in this video • 4-Mation 3D zoetropes:... . You can download the files pre-supported for Form2 here: www.thingiverse.com/thing:302...
For newer printers like the Elegoo Saturn and similar 8.9inch LCD printers (or larger) you can download the pre-supported files here: cults3d.com/en/3d-model/art/f...
Note the 2D colour printed carousel sheet design is not public, you have to get that from us at 4-mation.co.uk
Note: for filming - we use high speed shutter and match carousel rotation speed to the camera fps (you can see me adjust the carousel speed on the phone app).
In person, 4-Mation uses strobes - 24 x 3Watts - but strobes do not film well - so we turn them off and use shutter speed instead.

Oh wow, I didn't even notice that. Really incredible work!
Thank you!
Daily Dose Of Internet You got me here searching for more
Daily Dose Of Internet Im here because of your video!
Possibly the coolest thing you have introduced me to!
Yay I found you. Lol. Came here from your amazing vidrom
Hey ddoi, I just want to thank you so much for the hours worth of work you create for us. And hope you really earn great things for it in the future! :D
This is incredible! Great work!
ChannelFrederator i luv u chnnel

I am floored. My brain can’t wrap around this. Literally amazing
Thanks :) I do have a video on how 3D zoetropes work, and also a video on how the fish animation story is more than 3 seconds long and the animation loop is less than 1 second if you really want to bend your noggin :)
I have a question for you though - where did you come from? I haven't figured out youtube tracking yet - but I can see a bunch of mobile traffic, you come from an instagram post?
Wow! Movable art is how I see this. Very mesmerizing. And creative.
thanks - check the latest version with improved colour scheme: th-cam.com/users/shortsxYgqy68A-PI
@@n0f8r you’re welcome and I checked out your recommendation. Very nice improved color scheme. The whole thing is amazing to see.
Thank you for this, I love showing works like this to my kids; A perfect example of math, science and art coming together !
Wow, this looks amazing!
This is mind-bending. Congrats on doing such a fantastic job with all the pieces. There should be a full TV documentary on this artform. Zoetropes have been around for over 100 years, but nothing remotely as awesome as this. Bravo!
Thanks! you're too kind :) I mean there are a few other zoetropes out there that I think look really good. The Toy Story and Studio Ghibli ones for example. They're obviously large machines with big budgets, and there's other big ones too, although none of them lean into the multiplied-loop technique like me. Maybe I'll get a chance to one-up them one day with a big-budget client ;)
This is just amazing. Beautiful work on this!
Gosh, im loving Zoetropes. Trippy
I love how the water is animated too. Nice job.
That's TH-cam algorithm for you. Recommends after 1 year total bullshit.
This guy deserves to be a TH-cam sensation.
Great work.
This is amazing! Thanks for creating it
I love the side eye where the fish realized that it's about to become another fish's snack LOL
Good spot! 👏👏we switched the direction in the next version to make it easier to catch th-cam.com/users/shortsxYgqy68A-PI
Fantastic piece of art!
A great masterpiece you’ve done. Amazing job!
Thanks :) we've actually got a much refined version coming soon, along with the kickstarter and two new animations.
What a fantastic example of stop-motion and thaumatrope. I am mentioning you and this film in my research for uni.
hey thanks! there are more on my channel :) also Fish has been significantly updated since this video, and there's been glimpses of most of the changes, but look out for proper FishV2 coming soon :)
That looks amazing!
Sort of like an animated MC Escher. Awesome!
Wonderful, I love it!
These are the coolest things ever!
thank you so much!
The music is just ideal!!!
That's Amazing!!
I could watch it for hours
Fantastic demonstration of aliasing. Nice work !!
aliasing?
Here a desirable visual artifact associated with the frame rate of the videography. The frame rate is near the Nyquist limit of the rotating platform. Very cool to say the least.
Wow. That's a really nice zoetrope machine.
Such an awesome work.... 👍😲
yo....... what.... this is amazing!
Due to the heat index of your central nervous system in relation to the gravitation of our 4th ozone layer you are seeing a fish eat another fish when really they are starving.
Creativity abounds here. Thank you for sharing.
That's got to be the best 3D zoetrope I have ever seen!
thanks!
Wow that's truly amazing
Simply awesome!
Wow great work
thank you!
Best Zoetrope on youtube!👍👍👍
glad you like it - thanks! 🤗
how cool is that!

Wow! Amazing! 😮
Do you need a camera to view it like this? Is viewing with naked eye the same?
Since they didn't reply I'll take a shot at it.. I'm pretty sure it has to do with the frame rate of the camera (i.e. how many frames per second captured), along with a spinning rpm that nearly matches the frame rate. Similar to how wheels on cars can look like they are nearly motionless or even spinning backwards when filmed if the rpm of the wheel is close to the frame rate of the camera.
For naked eye viewing without the camera:
The wooden cross up top has LEDs on the underside that strobe flash in synch with the 20 sectors of animation going past.
20 flashes / rev, 75 rpm = 25 "frames" per second.
Beautiful
This is awesome!
Unbelievable Work bro keep it up ✌️😎💐
Amazing. Working in time with the frame rate😊
Yes in this video - but also for human eyes when the strobes are on, eg: th-cam.com/video/EBMwX6BTRHA/w-d-xo.html in that video the camera is configured to be like human eyes and it's filmed with with the strobes. Off at the beginning, then on, and off again at the end - the main difference against the human eye is that it's better than the camera at handling the colour and light range when the strobes are off or on.
@@n0f8r Its very clever though. And strobes yes. ❤
This is amazing!!!
my fav so far
Thank you! - it's actually been improved a lot since 2018, but I haven't had a chance to make a proper video. You can see a short of the new version here though: th-cam.com/users/shortsxYgqy68A-PI
Holy Shit! It´s Amazing!
Gorgeous
What type of sorcery is this?
Your a wizard Harry
Вот чудеса! Интересно то, что когда это волшебство прекращается (остановка круга), то мозг не может поймать этот момент.
Это другое, но лучше лично со вспышками. Это видео снято без вспышек, поэтому переход странный - но со вспышками переход мгновенный - посмотрите это видео, камера настроена на приближение к человеческому зрению: th-cam.com/video/idemWAE6Jjo/w-d-xo.html (это не так хорошо, но примерно так это выглядит)
@@n0f8r ааа.... Вон оно что .... Как необычно меняется восприятие 😳
This is the same as the comics, which will play each frame in rapid succession. However, this can be a good gift.
Stunning!
thanks!
My mind still can´t understand how this work, but it´s absolutely amazing! Fantastic!
try my "how 3D zoetropes work" video 😁 th-cam.com/video/V8nXkthtYPc/w-d-xo.html and if you're feeling like stretching your mind a bit more, this one th-cam.com/video/U8ZHJwjGL5s/w-d-xo.html
I have lots of questions! Like how fast is the stage spinning, how long this took you to build, and how does this work?
That's so cool.
Brilliant!
Me: This looks like a magical Harry Potter toy! Real life: It's physics bro.
Yup :) th-cam.com/video/V8nXkthtYPc/w-d-xo.html but it's not just physics, there's an extra mind-twisting "escheresque" ingredient: th-cam.com/video/U8ZHJwjGL5s/w-d-xo.html
you need more subscribers! This is so f*cking cool!!!
Très bien fait ❤génial je dirais ❤
Merci Beaucoup!
Just too Gooood!
That is insane
Fabuloso!
Wow so cool
Fantastic and mindblowing.how could you do that?
I love it.❤
glad to hear it ❤
this is just really trippy to me ;-;. But pretty cool!
Finally, a random TH-cam recommendation that wasn't stupid.
Amazing
It is so so cool.
SO COOL
You should make a HUGE one!
the exelent working
Oh.my goodness, huh?..I could watch this all day!
Grandios!!
Coolest shit I've seen in a while
Охуенчик ! Руки из правильного места растут.
Que excelente!!
can i ask you a question? i singed up for the early deals but i want to know something, does this machine sound very loud or on silent? because there is music in this video we really don't know.
That's a very good question - Our kids react video uses a motor we have since changed for a much quieter one. th-cam.com/video/vnQpPiluqvg/w-d-xo.html If you listen to the parts where the kids are just watching intently rather than reacting, you'll hear the noise of the old motor. 4-Mation is now a lot quieter than that.
This is awesome. My mind is blown. I saw the video on how its done...and that just made it worse. lol Super cool though.
it's so confusing! Great :D
wow nice
Do any of the fish actually move from the center to the edge or is it all an illusion?
Bem criativo 👍😀
Cool stuff, That's the same type of contraption the CIA used for mk ultra.
Pls pls elaborate
Волшебство.... Как Вы это делаете?!
посмотри мои вчерашние ответы tamito9298
can this bee seen with the naked eye or only with camera trickery?
It works IRL too with strobes, but strobes do not film well. So for filming I turn the strobes off, set the shutter speed to 1/2000 and adjust the carousel rpm so that the camera sees 24 carousel segments per second. I'll be posting more videos including some with a colleagues camera that minimises the artefacts caused when filming with strobes.
The naked eye. The zoetrope is a pre-film invention dating back to 1834.
@Adam Hickam - Heh, there's been quite a few changes since then to make them work in 3D - so no - when I was filming above the animation was not visible except on the camera.
If you can blink 24 times per second.
Make the glasses blink 24 times per second
Mind blown! I just dont understand it! How did the small fish eat the bigger fish
Ah! The endless circle of life.
How many rpm does it takes??
With the strobes on we normally run it at 100 RPM (generating about 33 strobes per second) but when filming with rolling shutter camera we turn the strobes off and match the carousel speed to the camera frame rate which works out around 72 RPM.
Enough to fill the circle
Where to buy anyone know????
Is it the camera picture's frames speed that make the movement smooth ?
Does it look also smooth when watched with nuked eyes ?
"nuked eyes" 🤣🤣 - not sure if that's a typo or not - since for "naked eyes" strobes create the effect - see here: th-cam.com/video/idemWAE6Jjo/w-d-xo.html if it wasn't a typo, then note that the strobes don't nuke the eyes at default frame rate of 28fps, but if you go down below 25fps it can get uncomfortable!
Thanks, my English is still terrible.
I remember learning this effect at the Photography school, but it was almost 40 years ago...
@@alexabadi7458 ahh - I wasn't sure, because if you take the strobe rate down to like 15 strobes per second or lower- and have the brightness up high - then it does Nuke your eyes! I mean it's quite uncomfortable and most people instantly their head turn away and complain ...
What sorcery is this
Hi, this is insanely cool great work but how do u do it? Do u sell tutorials or book or something that i can learn how to do it?
see my reply to your other comment on the "how 3D zoetropes work" - I put a lot of effort into that video, I can't think of a better way to explain how it works. I sell the strobe+frame+motor kits that come with an App for interactive control
Vengo de UPDT
Like si tu tambien
When this is going to be up for sale? I want it 😍
see video description; www.4-mation.co.uk
I'm wondering. Normally a zoetrope requires a strobe light to see the effect. Our eyesight doesn't flicker.
So the fact we see this, I'm assuming is more due to the flickering of the camera filming the rotation. Like when filming the blades of a helicopter, at certain speeds the blades seem to be frozen still.
How will we see this with our naked eyes?
Also, this was published on Oct 2017. But your page still has a form to be notified of the kickstarter. Will there be a kickstarter?
See the video description - strobes do not film well without a global shutter, so we turn them off for filming. You could also check out our video explaining how 3D zoetropes work, filmed with a hired Sony F55 that does have a global shutter.
Thanks. My question was not so much about how you filmed it, but more about how it will actually work for someone who owns the 3d zoetrope. Nevertheless, you said "we turn them off for filming", which tells me the zoetrope comes with strobes. Which answers my first question.
Now the second question I had: when?
I pointed you at the "how zoetropes work" video because in that video the strobes are on. We hired a sony F55 for a weekend to film it. The F55 can film the strobes because it has a global shutter.
Kickstarter launches very soon - 14th August. Sign up on the website for reminder email 4-mation.co.uk - or follow our facebook facebook.com/4dashmation
The very limited Early Bird rewards will ship in time for Christmas and have discounts of 20% or more.
Thanks. signed up and also joined the forum :)
¡Brujeria!

"There's always a bigger fish."
there might be some even bigger fish later this year - I have a new large zoetrope machine ....
@@n0f8r You don't get the reference?
A few small questions
What's the speed 1440 rpm or 1800?
Strobe information please.
Top speed is 100rpm, but in the video - to sync with the camera frame rate of 25fps - it's running at about 75rpm. When the strobes are on, they always fire 20 times per revolution, so at 75rpm that equates to about 25 strobes per second. At 100rpm that means about 33 strobes per second.
Офигенно!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Does this look as cool in real life? Or is it mostly camera tricks?
In real life it uses strobes, normally strobe flashes don't film well and this video was filmed with the strobes off - however I recently upgraded the control software to allow better filming with the strobes on th-cam.com/video/J3o9QBifdrY/w-d-xo.html
