Description:
This stop motion short was produced by Grasshorse for Skelanimals as a demonstration of our proprietary technology, ProtoMotion. The plush character was modified with a wire armature and mounting bracket, while performance was first animated in Autodesk Maya. Animation data (including coordinates and rotations) was exported from Maya and applied through ProtoMotion to guide precise frame-by-frame character placement for photography.
