The Ultimate Lego Phone Mount Tutorial (for Lego stop motion)

  • In this video I talk about all the methods of holding my phone for stop motion animation that I have used, ending with a tutorial on how to build the perfect stop motion Lego phone mount of my own design.
    5084 pictures taken at 24 FPS. Created on an iPhone 11 ProMax using Stop Motion Studio Pro. Edited video with Adobe premiere pro.
    This is the first full video that I have ever animated at 24 FPS. I think it turned out great. While I was working on the shots for The Lego Movie Rebuilt, I was inspired by the style of the animation of the original Lego Movie. The characters had a lot more quick and dramatic movements then I remembered, with some of the characters being animated on 2s and sometimes even 3s or 4s. I wanted to emulate this style in my own stop motions. I am really happy with how it turns out.

    • @Loft_Studios
      @Loft_Studios  18 дней назад

      The fabric helps it not slide easily while helping it slide smoothly when intended. I use a Bluetooth keyboard to take pictures. That keeps me from bumping my camera. Sometimes I will use sticky tack to anchor the phone mount to the table for extra security.
