1. Coffee Time
9 months ago
Every cup of coffee contains its own soul, extracted from your feeling today.every cup of coffee is like a magic show containing different journey and bringing the unending imagination and surprises.With a sip of coffee, you not only taste your own story, but also change your perspective of the world.

------

it's my first time try to make a stop-motion animation.

I used to be a senior student majoring in commercial design who had no interest whatsoever in animation. However, last summer I saw a amazing work "SNASK" (vimeo.com/10435821) , which awakened in me a huge interest in Stop-Motion. This was also my very first encounter towards videos.

Indeed, "Coffee Time" was adapted from Mike Crozier's animation "SNASK", I used that as a template for my own first practice video made with stop-motion. I tried to recreate the effects from "SNASK" (vimeo.com/10435821) , and I learned so much from this process. At the end of the video, I mixed in an animation containing my personal favorite coffee elements.

It's not apply to any commercial act. It only served as my first practice of stop-motion, and I show great appreciation and respect for Mike Crozier. The original producer was notified prior to the publishing of the video. My initial intention was to humbly share my practicing result with relatives and friends. But now the consequence was totally out of my expectation. I am greatly honored by all the feedback and encouragement, which I am deeply appreciative of.

I hope that everyone can put more emphasis on the processing. For me, a heart-touching film is like a good mentor, exerting much influence. And "SNASK" is just like a mother to me, bearing the interests for stop-motion, and inspiring me with the motive of learning. All the praises and admiration the video has received undoubtedly belongs to Mike Crozier.

It took me one month for deliberation, production, prop preparation, almost two weeks of shooting, and 1,705 pieces of photos to finish the video.

    Great sound work! It's what really made the piece for me. Perhaps some environmental ambience could have been added, but it wasn't necessary.
    The animation was superb. I never once felt it was too slow or choppy--traits which I see often in stop-motion animation. Your use of colors kept it cute and engaging.
    And the heart at the end was adorable. If it were possible to buy stop-motion products for real life use, you'd have sold me on this one.
    Great piece!

    Thank you! :)

    In fact, I made two yellow coffee boxes. One is hollowed out, and shot chronologically. The other is complete, and shot reversely.

  • Nathan Dahlin 9 months ago
    Nice video. As one minor nitpick, did you have to use the Outlook meeting reminder sound as your "coffee art selected" sound effect (1:22)? For a split-second, I thought I might have a meeting I'd forgotten about. ;-)
  • wan-tzu 9 months ago
    Thank you. :)

    But my resource is limited, so the sound track may be short of professional production cost. Most music was found from free online music resource, and later adapted and trimmed. Before seeing your response, I didn’t even know about the Outlook alarm sound, since I almost never used it. What a surprise!

    nice work but its a shame that this is
    copy and paste, big rip off of this piece vimeo.com/10435821
  • wan-tzu 9 months ago
    I am deeply sorry for causing the dispute, and please allow me to explain.

    Indeed, "Coffee Time" was adapted from Mike Crozier’s SNASK, and does not apply to any commercial act. It only served as my first practice of stop-motion, and I show great appreciation and respect for Mike Crozier. The original producer was notified prior to the publishing of the video. My initial intention was to humbly share my practicing result with relatives and friends. But now the consequence was totally out of my expectation. I am greatly honored by all the feedback and encouragement, which I am deeply appreciative of.

    I hope that everyone can put more emphasis on the “procedure”. For me, a heart-touching film is like a good mentor, exerting much influence. And SNASK is just like a mother to me, bearing the interests for stop-motion, and inspiring me with the motive of learning. All the praises and admiration the video has received undoubtedly belongs to Mike Crozier.

    Thank you for all the instructive feedback. I shall work harder to fulfill my dream in the future path.
  • AlternativePub.tv plus 9 months ago
    dear wan-tzu, be sure that your anime work is great, you are very talented with stop motion animation, i mean it the only thing is that most of the ideas are coming straight from that movie without any changes or relooking and i think it would have been appropriate to mention it in the comment as you just did now. it is a question about creation and copyrights belonging to the original creators.
    cordially

    As i video director, i am behind AlternativePub.tv.

    You can inspire from good ideas, but you HAVE to make them your own. It's too easy to rip off.
