Making Progress on My Stop-Motion Animation

I am so close to being done with my stop-motion animation! In the beginning I had such basic drawings and now I have a piece of production that I think looks pretty cool. Of course I had a couple setbacks like not knowing how to light any shot, accidentally making my project 4K (literally have no idea how I did that), and struggling to hide the paint marks on the bottle cap. A number of people helped me solve each of these problems as they came up (thank you Arturo!) and now I have this:


Ta-da! I'm still working on the sound design and the LMFAO song that's in there right now is more of a placeholder than anything. I'm hoping to get an original track from a friend to swap in for it. Let me know what you think.

My Next Project

I'm wrapping up my name animation now (yeah, I know my workflow isn't the fastest) and I finally came up with a new project that I think is both challenging, yet achievable.

In my Program Development class, I'm working with a team to develop a web series called Turnt Trivia. On the show, our host will pull people off the street as they're either on their way out, or on their way home after a night of drinking to ask them trivia questions for a chance to win some prizes--like a free ride home, pizza, and a t-shirt.

I want to create a short animation to play at the beginning of the show that will end with the logo. I also want to put the logo on the t-shirts but that's a whole other thing.

So here's what I've come up with so far:

My terribly drawn storyboard
In case you can't tell by my drawings, I basically want a hand to reach for a bottle of beer, open it with a can opener, and the the bottle cap will flip in the air and land on a table revealing the words "Turnt Trivia" on it.

Also, here is a mock up logo I quickly made. I'm probably going to put the word "turnt" on the bottle cap.


I would greatly appreciate any and all feedback on this, so if you have any ideas, I am more than willing to hear them. Thank you!
