24 Hours to Make a Stop Motion Film

stop-motion is without a doubt one of the most difficult and time-consuming ways to make a film i mean these things take literally hundreds of people years to make can you even imagine the awful mess of a film if one guy tried to make an entire stop-motion movie in 24 hours you'd have to be completely insane to even attempt it good thing i am alright so first things first we need a log line one sentence that encapsulates the entire film here we go i'm about to come up with something right sheep sheep and cow steel grass the ultimate gras the ultimate square of grass oh the power went down i guess you could say my ideas are just too electric okay this next part is really boring i spend the next four hours writing the script uh you don't get to know anything about it though because it is a surprise so now we need to come up with the voices for each character you guys know i like doing weird voices so i am very excited that was one of them so our first character is our sheep i was thinking he could like sound a bit like this like he's like a little bit australian actually he's a lot australian ah okay i like that our next character is our cow i reckon this cow comes from the us of a so what's the plan boss it's not tara it moving on our final character is the security guard the only accent which i'm actually proud of is this one you there what are you doing there sir stop right there it's the only accent i can really do i then spent the next two hours recording all of the voices i feel like i might faint or something i feel like i might faint or something i actually do feel like i might faint or something with the audio done and dusted and about seven hours gone it was time to get visual so this blue track here is the finished audio it's got all the dialogue all the sound effects all the music it's good to go what i've done is i've planned out what the characters mouths are gonna look like so what's the plan boss so what's the plan boss so what's the plan boss i had to listen to each frame and then pick the mouth that i thought would fit the sound it took me three hours so at this point everything seemed to be on schedule 10 hours gone and it was time to sculpt our characters out of clay and foil side note i have no idea how to sculpt stuff with foil and clay uh actually i did get sixth place in my art class though when i was 12. i think i'll sculpt our guard on camera and the other two i'll do off camera just so that you know the final product is a bit of a surprise uh well actually mostly i just don't want my camera to run out especially not that bad i thought it was going to be way worse actually the more i look at it the worse it gets it's kind of giving me mild grandma vibes but actually maybe it should have a beard oh that's a good idea with nearly 13 hours gone and our characters ready to go it was time to find some props luckily i have three sisters liam why is that lucky believe me for the most part it's not but when it comes to doll houses we've got the goods on the list of things to steal from barbie i have two chairs and a table that's all i need oh jackpot table two chairs okay we're done that was easy the scene is set literally and metaphoric no actually just literally and i'm about to start animating i'm going to work through the night and the next thing you see will be the premiere so at this point i'm thinking to myself right eight hours to go i should finish with plenty of time to spare take a guess how long you think it took me six hours seven hours 20 hours if you guessed c that would be correct it took me 20 hours to finish this thing sorry 36 hours 20 for the animation ladies and gentlemen welcome to the red carpet premiere of my film which doesn't have a name yet sit back relax and enjoy the next 90 seconds so what's the plan boss how are we going to acquire the ultimate square of grass [Music] so i reckon we like like start off like through the vents or something you know like maybe we could like jump like a guy like go around like something like you don't have a plan do you boss this is a teleporter boss press this button we're in press this button again we're out you had a bloody teleporter this whole time and you didn't tell me you know i'm insecure about my heist plans jeremy sorry boss i won't let it happen again let's just get moving alright oh crap jeremy we've set the bloody alarm off look boss there it is the ultimate square of grass who goes there i've got a giant gun and i'm not afraid to use it jeremy quick grab the grass mate is that a bubble gun well yes we can't use a real gun of course liam's video would be demonetized instantly and they all lived happily ever oh man i don't feel so good after that grace boss oh yeah mate i feel like i might faint or something [Music] holy crap that voice is hard to do my master plan is all coming together and that is 36 hours i will never get back i hope that you enjoyed this very weird video let me know if you want me to do this again i actually had a lot of fun doing this believe it or not i know apart from that i will see you all very very soon thank you very much for watching peace out and bye bye
