FPS stand for frames per second, a measurement for how many unique following images a camera can handle each second.
Low-end digital still cameras typically have a frame rate of 1fps. Low end digital video cameras typically have a frame rate of 30fps, 25fps and even less depending on what needs to be filmed and how fats or slow, the second matter the most as they are very important.
Today we manged to create a 13 second mini animation. It went so well as this time we got enough time to edit it. I feel that it looks very good but so simple.
We used a money bank which was the shape of a camper-van and added a knitted mini hat on top to make it look cute. We used a Pikachu toy to make it look more realistic which didn't actually work. we made it look like it was walking to the van and then gets on, It crashed into a pool of water and he died. he fell in as it crashed.
What we can improve?
I feel that if we got a chance to do this again, I would improve on the idea more and make it look more exciting and make it look more professional. I feel that it was okay for doing it first time. I would make it look more smooth so it doesn't jump.
What I like?
I like this because i find it so funny how they have used everyday objects like fruits and food, the way they used the pickle made it look better. The music does get a little annoying but it goes with the animation.
In the lesson we managed to film a mini animation. it was just taking images but then we edited it together so it looked like a mini film. We had to think of an idea on spot which was very hand, we changed the hole idea so many times and at the end it still didn't work well. Had to take pictures of every single moment like as the feet moves just a little bit, then when we put it together it will flow nicely. We made a mini animation with a girl walking down the stairs, unfortunately we didn't have enough time to change the location but we used what we had and the location which was the closest.
What we need to improve?
If we get to do this again next time we will improve the idea we came up with. It all seemed so silly and didn't work as well as we wanted it to, it didn't look professional and just ugly. Although it was what Faye asked for but we should of thought of a better location which would have made it stand out.
what is pixelation animation?
'Stop motion technique where live actors are used as a frame-by-frame subject in an animated film, by repeatedly posing while one or more frame is taken and changing pose slightly before the next frame or frames. The actor becomes a kind of living stop motion puppet.'

What I like?
I like this animation because i feel that it was done so well, it looks so smooth and professional. I like how they have just done it in black and white adds to the effect. The way they used the hands at the start was done well as well.
In this lesson I and a few of others in my team managed to
make a stop motion animation. It wasn't the best but we was very proud of it.
We used cut out animation as in cutting out materials to make it look like
scene we wanted. We used paper, card, tissue paper, blue tack. We made the blue
tissue paper the clouds and we made the brown cards birds flying together. As
they reached each other we made them look like they was about to kiss and love
hearts appeared which made it so cute.
What we need to improve?
When importing the images we took we realised they was videos instead so we couldn't edit them how we wanted. We wasn't able to put it in an editing software and edit it as it just didn't come together well enough.
I think next time we should take a little longer to actually think of a good idea and make sure we know how the camera settings work because we obviously didn't know.
What is stop motion animation?
Stop motion animation is basically many images put together
showing a motion. Frame by frame. When a photo is taken, the object for example
moves just a little, then again photo gets taken ... on repeat till it makes a
mini animation when the images are edited together. It's like 100+ photos are
put next to each other to make it a moving animation, making it look like its
changing etc.
I like this animation because I feel that its been done so professionally, it looks amazing the way its done. It does look like its made out of paper but at the same time it does look like a dog, its so smooth and doesn't have any awkward jumps which makes it look more professional.
