Claymation
Safety when using clay educational video
19/10/14
We were asked to create a video of a few minutes that would explain the safety of using one of the materials we had used within 3D so far. Our group decided to make it about clay. considering that it was the one material we had used the most, the safety for it had become pretty easy to remember and therefore made the task a lot easier. We also settled on making a Claymation to demonstrate safety using the clay while adding in simple flash cards for the viewers to read. The idea was to create a fun video that was entertaining and also helped those who were viewing it to learn the safety of using clay.
To create the Claymation, it would require using a camera to take multiple photo's of clay models which were to be slowly moved to create, all together, a moving image. We settled on having numerous models, some of dry clay, some of wet clay, so that we could move some around (The dry clay models) and in any scenes on close-up's of moving models, have them actually move (the wet clay models)
The set was to be a simple open box which was going to be painted in the theme of a classroom which would have small props such as chairs, tables, goggles and a sink.
After the testing to see what a Claymation would look like, we finally settled on the idea and got to work creating story boards and creating the models that needed to dry out. Each person within the group was designated numerous roles that had to be completed to create the Claymation.
Rather than having someone talking over the video, we decided to have jolly and entertaining music, such as 8-bit or Charlie Chaplin playing, since someone talking through the video would lower the quality, loose viewer interest and wasn't necessary because of the flashcards.

At first we have only created enough clay models for different scenes within the video.
