3 years later, you’re still helping beginner stop motion animators! Thank you!
Oh my gosh, this is amazing. We watched this in my comic art and animation class and this had given me so many great ideas!
That's wonderful to hear!
The fact that animation classes are showing TH-cam videos in class just solidifies my theory that I can learn everything I need to online...😅
I'm currently in the process of making a music video, and this tutorial was so helpful. it's exactly what I was looking for! your puppet looks incredible. thank you holly :-)
Thank you so much! 🙏I’m so happy you think so!! Good luck on your music video!! 😊
If its done can u put a link too it?
Damn im here for the same reason for a fan videoof a gorejit song
Its been a year please dont give up on your video! Its never too late to come back and finish or restart it! As long as you enjoy doing it you should do it!
Will this video be published? Good luck!
This tutorial is amazing! 🧡The big plus would be a tutorial similar to this one where you create a head that you can animate, since this one is fixed, so you can't animate it in stop motion videos.
You can also add some key holes on the back and front so you can use a rig to hold your character in place while animating. Just add them into your milliput, I use two different size brass rods so the can slot into each other 😊
I keep coming back to this one.
Truly astonishing! The Curanium gang approves of this masterpiece!
it’s the enchanted music for me ....
That is such an amazing in depth tutorial! I want to improve my puppet at some point and this video helped me so much! Exactly what I needed. Your puppet also looks amazing
Thank you so much! I’m glad this helps! ☺️
Was looking for tutorials for stop animation because I want to try to do one and I stumbled into this. It's a very helpful tutorial. Thank you!
Love your art and dedication ❣️. Watch your work, feels great.
Top tier tutorial, Thank you
Thank you so much! 🥰 🙏
@Colt Jack i tried it and it worked! I hacked obamas mom and now i have a million dollars in my bank account.
I absolutely love this video! You've definitely given me amazing tips and inspiration! Tonight, I'm going to start brainstorming and sketching out the character I want to make. Thank you!
I’m using this video for an armature stop motion assignment for a college class im taking currently, its very helpful and the puppet looks great! Thanks for the informative vid!
Finally someone shows *exactly* how to begin...
I thank you so much for thiss definently subscribing ❤❤❤
Wow. This seems like a very effective way. I usually just use non hardening clay for my animation puppets. However the clay starts to get pushed in and by the end of the animation, the character looks completely messed up. Mine also don’t stand on their own. So I’m going to use this video to make some cute ones. Thank you for the tutorial!
This is really awesome. I Been doing stop motion for a while but mainly only using plastic toys that were already built or small bits of clay and wanted to build a more permanent character, who wouldn't just fall down every time i position it! This was a great lesson! Thankyou, i am really inspired. Love his little overalls n-n
God! love the texture and all the detail!
This is fantastic, thank you for giving me a heading on how to create my own puppets!
thank you so much for this tutorial, i’ve been looking for the perfect one and this is the one! i cant wait to make my little puppet :)
Amazing!! Congratulations!
It turned out very beautiful! I was looking for how to make a puppet for StopMotion, as I started making my StopMotion shorts with plastic soldiers and I came across this wonderful video, thank you for sharing your talent, success always.
Wow this is amazing!!
This tutorial is amazing!!!
He's so cute! I've been looking for a vid like this for ages!!
Great Tutorial and nice Stop Motion Puppet!!
I'm planning on doing a little nightmares 2 stop motion series so this was very helpful.
How exciting! I love little nightmares! 😁 glad this helps !
Cool, i love litlle nightmares
Wow, that's really impressive!
That's really great!
Hobby Unlocked. Thank you for showing how to make the armature easy
Thank you for the poppet-making tutorial! I want to start, but I'm not sure where to begin
Wonderful puppet! 😍 Thank you for sharing this process!🙏🙏🙏
I love this tutorial because it's so easy to understand, thanks Holly :D
Thank you, it's so encouraging to hear you enjoyed it and found it easy to follow! :)
Love it!!! Sooo good 👍
Ah! This is perfect for what I want to do! Thank you!!!!!
That was great. Thanks for this.
I like the character, too. Inspired an idea. Great work.
This is just what I needed! Very detailed and informative👍
Thank you very much! Glad you found it helpful! :)
Keep up the great work
Love the pumpkin head !
Thanks! 😊
I really enjoyed this. I learned a couple tricks to put in my back pocket as well. Thank you for the video and great looking puppet!
Thanks for watching! That's great to hear !
Going to art school next year and taking a class in stop motion!! I wanted to have a little practice before hand and this is incredibly helpful
this is amazing
You do great ,good luck
Amazing. Thank you so much for sharing this
gorgeous
I don’t think I have any of the stuff I need.
Super helpful video!
So, what about making the eyes move, and different facial expressions? Do ya need multiple heads? If so, how do you make the doll so her head can pop off and on?
¡I LOVE YOUR FIGURE! 🤩🤩🤩
Great work! Question: do you ever have an issue of the fingers snapping off when you're moving them around? That just happened to me while using 1mm wire. Wondering if you have a trick of how to avoid it.
This will be very helpful for my show I’m making!
Wow thank you, I can't wait to make my own puppet!
You’re welcome! 🥰 I’m glad this helps!
Hope you have fun making your own puppet!
@@HollyLam thank you, it helped a lot! Thank you sm you just made my day.
You are literally saving my butt right now 🙏🏽
What would you do if your character didn’t have clothes? How would you hide the bendable parts while still letting it be semi bendable?
He is so cute!!!
Brilliant 🎃
Can we all agree that stop motion looks best with mild horror like Coraline. Btw, loved the video! Can't wait to start up my new channel!
Thank you very much for this good tutorial :)
honesttly best tutorial ever !! i’m following it but i just get stuck on wiring the head, is it supposed to be perfectly replicating the drawn head or can it be smaller / less round? wouldn’t it affect the end project ?
That was fucking amazing!!! Amazing technique of clothing..Much love for all stop-motion enthusiasts like you (Im also one of them 🙄).
Gracias por tu tutorial , es el mejor que he visto. Ahora si podré hacer mi puppet ☺️
Great great 👌👌👌
first off, holy shit this is helpful, and second the music in the background is giving inside out
Thanks this was helpful!
Thanks so much for this! :)
Wow so nice you made a aluminum wire into puppet so nice and I really like the background music
Thank you very much! I’m glad you enjoyed the video ☺️
😀
very helpful!
really helpful video thanks Holly. There is a cheap alternative to the metal epoxy that you are using that usually comes in small tubes. BigBoy metal filler is around £6 for 250gms. Would that do the trick do you think? Seems to be similar stuff?
This is so cool. I'm guessing the wire will eventually snap if bent a lot. What can be used to make lasting joints?
This is really cool. But I have one question. Is their alternative way to make the bones instead epoxy putty. Because I didn't want to handle anything toxic.
Parabéns pela partilha...Excelente tutorial...Obrigada
Astonishing! I make pupets too but I am too😜 lazy to make stop motion
Very nice video I will definitely subscribe 🙏🏼
Thank you! 😊
great video!
Thank you!
This is great very helpful to thanks
That looks really good! Keep it up
Thank you!!
most helpful video
This looks gorgeous, but do you think i could use polymer clay instead of milliput?
Thank you! I am starting claymation soon!!!! Also im gonna try and get a 3d printer
Good one, I'm using your technique to make my second puppet..
I love the proportions and look of the the puppet! Is there any room on the back where it can connect to a rig?
thank you very much! 😊 I’m not entirely sure how it’s usually installed in the puppet but there’s definitely some space in the back of the puppet where you could potentially connect to a rig. Just keep in mind how the rig would be attached and the space needed when making your puppet:) Hope this helps!
Do you have a suggestion for Epoxy putty alternatives? I am doing this with 5th graders and I need something less caustic and cheaper. Great video, Thank You
hello !! fantastic video, has helped me a lot…what’s that foam called? I can’t find it in any of the shops near me. thank you!!
btw I love your little guy!
Wooow
great video ! but I don't suggest you to twist the wire for the armature because it will weaken the wire and so it would break easier
Thank you! Oh I see, thanks for letting me know! :)
you're welcome
Excellent tutorial and really fab puppet! Have you experienced any problems with the polymer clay after painting? I used polymer clay in a puppet and the clay turned really sticky after painting with acrylic and it's concerned me about using it in projects in the future.
Hello Claire, i'm glad you think so! I have not had any issues with stickiness when it comes to painting the polymer clay with acrylic paint as the clay should be completely dry to paint over once its been baked in the oven.
@@HollyLam Thank you for the reply! I couldn't see why it would have done that either to be honest, it was very strange. I'll give it another go though now I know it isn't usually an issue and hopefully it won't happen again.
Thank you!
Thanks 🙏
Aww these Is soo Gret !! I Want to Knoe how to do a stop motion video...i am a super super beginner
I always wanted to make stop motion animation.
Comece com bonecos simples! Eu mesmo comecei com soldados de plásticos, e procurei um video tutorial de como fazer um boneco para animação em StopMotion, vi o video dela fazendo o boneco que ficou muito bonito.
How would you do the head so you can replace the lower jaw for lipsyncing purposes?
thanks im working on a mixed media film : D
Good tutorial, felt like you made it look easier than it actually is for some reason lol, if you don’t mind me asking, how much did this cost, and how long was the process?
It definitely isn’t an easy process if you’re doing this the first time! I’ve made quite a few of these over the years so this process is what I’ve developed and refined from many trial and errors. This project took me a full day to make but as a beginner it may take longer. The cost depends on the materials you decide to use as I already had some materials around the house such as the sponge, wire and fabric. As someone just starting out in stop-motion, If you were the purchase all the materials it would still be more cost effective than purchasing a professional stop motion armature etc. :)
@@HollyLam interesting, I’ll keep this in mind for when I start at some point, and again, good tutorial
@@HollyLam if you don’t mind, do you have any knowledge on working with multiple faces or expressions, and also flexible joints for a puppet?
@@derpanimator3097 I do know a bit about about face/ head replacement parts (usually made from plasticine or hard materials either 3D printed or hand sculpted with magnetic attachment) and moveable eyes and mouth (when puppets are silicone casted) as I have made puppets with those components. They do take a lot more time and materials to make. There are people who have made flexible joints on their puppets by adding nuts and bolts that are used in professional armatures to wire armatures as an alternative. A lot of online resources and tutorials cover that aspect so it is definitely worth looking into :)
@@HollyLam ok, thanks
I wanted to ask a quick question; what would you recommend doing if you want to be able to change the outfit of your puppet? Would it be best to just make multiple puppets with each outfit or is there a way you would recommend to be able to change outfits on the same model?
I would make outfits that are easy to remove from the puppet with attachments such as Velcro/snap buttons/magnetic strips . Less work and material required for this method:)
@@HollyLam that didn't even cross my mind tysm XD
@HollyLam I have one last question; how would you recommend making or changing the doll if your trying to make a doll that for example has thicker arms, legs, hips, or chest? Would you keep the base the same or edit it?
hi! i got a really serious question, can you replace the metal putty with just regular clay? otherwise im gonna need to save up for a long time
Depends if you're going to have your stop-motion puppet move a lot, metal epoxy is much more durable than regular clay but if you’re planning on making just a sculpture not a puppet you can try using regular clay :) I think there are some affordable metal epoxy available online if you’re looking to get some. Hope this helps!
@@HollyLam Thank you so much! i tought the metal putty was around 50 dollars but turns out its not that expensive!
can you use air dry clay instead of polymer?
Is the aluminum wire needed from a hardware store or a armature wire?
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
awesome video! i just wish the music would tone down more so i would be able to hear your voice clearly, but thiss is aesome!
Awsome job what brand of paint did you use
Daler-Rowney System 3 Acrylic paint :)
