I love lego 'Brick' animation, so much so that I want to have a go at making some myself.
I've
just had issues trying to find a way around it in the technical
department, because a few years ago, I bought a camera that iStop Motion
and DragonFrame do not like.
I
was quiet naive though when I bought the thing. I thought it would just
work. That and I think I was being sold anything at the time, as shop
assistants try to do.
I
got a Nikon D3100. So far, it has served more of a purpose for my dad
than me, because I take pictures of the boxing lads at our boxing gym.
Still,
it has it's qualities and I'm not keen on the idea of sending it back
anytime soon. I've took a good few pictures from it, but I'm not expert
with it, so I recently bought a book that I hope will help a lot:
So
far, I've only had a glance through it, but it really does look simple
to use and understand. It features comparison shots, diagrams and loads
of info. I'm hoping that during the christmas holidays, I can refer to
this and get a better understanding of my camera.
It's
just been a bit of a pain really, feel like I've been mis-sold a
product for what I originally intended. On the other hand, I can't say I
regret buying it either, as I've taken some lovely pictures from it.
This video is another okay reference I found when animating with SLR cameras.
I thought some of the tips from this are quiet useful too, been looking for remotes for my model since I saw this.
