Do you know what a zoetrope is?
A zoetrope is animation devices that using an afterimage. I made that with LEGO.
Usually, ‘LEGO Animation’ means a stop motion animation, but this is a ‘Real’ 3D Animation! :-)
The figure seems to be jumping!
Prototype
I made an octagon cylinder, and I arranged the 8 mini-figures with a different pose.
But this prototype was not so good.
This animation is not smooth because there are not enough frames.
I thought the octagon weren’t enough…
Smooth Animation
So I made a dodecagon cylinder.
This animation is smooth!Decoration
It’s a very important work for me.
It seems to be the space station which has come out with a ‘2001:a space odyssey’.Let’s decorate!
This model looks like HAL9000, don’t you think so?My studio
This is my studio. :-)What do you think of my small studio?
