stop [nintendo classic in] motion




Just found this on a site. Personally I think it's brilliant.

Compare this to our first attempt at stop motion and you can see the difference. They obviously took ALOT more shots, which makes the piece flow smoother and also, last much longer.

What makes this great is the attention to detail - it's what makes the piece. The spark signs that they add to each vehicle as it goes round the corner, the retro sound clips which are easily identifiable to nintendo fans, and also, the way that when one of the players hits a box, he gains speed and this is represented on screen by either taking more shots and having him blast off, or leaving more gaps in between their shots.

Either way, very impressive and probably appreciated all the more so by Nintendo fanboys (me one of them!)

That's all for now...
