For a uni project, I was tasked to create a short video talking about myself and my artistic work. While I had intended to create a more animated character, I was restricted by time and the fact the programs I had experimented in the past were retired. Rip Flash. I

Here's a short clip from when I first got Claymation at home. Nothing more than a quick test, this is as basic as it gets. I did use Windows Movie Maker (Vista) to add a title and end screen. There are exactly 6 photos in this clip. I literally just
