If you, or some kids you know, are interested in animation, but have never had a chance to try it, this is your chance to start animating at an amazingly low initial cost! WHAT A DEAL!
Included in the Kit:
NEW Micro Innovations Deluxe Webcam. PC color video camera with close focus capability (focus range 1cm to infinity). Connects to your computer's USB 2.0 port. Comes with driver and manual. Manufacturer's warranty.
NEW 6" Poseable Human Figure. You can use this human frame as it comes out of the box, or cover it with a layer of clay, foam, clothes, etc to personalize your character. This figure (armature) will make your animation much easier to create than creating humans out of clay from scratch. The chest and feet are die-cast metal and the rest of the frame is rugged plastic. There are 32 joints that allow for incredibly natural and complex movements. Each joint is carefully designed to hold position and weight load. The joints are also accessible with a small screwdriver (for those of us who like to tinker and fine tune things). The weight distribution and footprint area are engineered to create a highly stable character, yet one which has pleasing proportions.
Beginner's Guide to Animation - Instruction Booklet. This New, Expanded 20 page guide will take you step by step through using the camera and figures, as well as provide tips and animation rules for making your movies more exciting and interesting. Topics include:
The basic rules of successful animating
Camera and lighting
Sets and Characters (including plans)
Scripting and Storyboarding
Movement
Cheats
Capturing images to your home computer
Creating DVDs, web animations and files for upload to YouTube, etc.
Also included is a list of production software available - INCLUDING LINKS TO DOWNLOAD FREE ANIMATION SOFTWARE so you can start immediately. Instructions for using your kit is included as well. This booklet will be sent as an attachment to the buyer's email address. If you would prefer this document on CD ROM, there is an additional $4.00 media and handling charge.
NEW Feature! We will include Adhesive Putty to attach to feet of the poseable character, bottom of camera, etc. - This will help you keep the feet and camera from moving when you want them to stay still. The putty will move when you want it to and not leave a mark!
We have taught animation for 8 years - even to kids as young as 8 years old, and have put this low cost system together so our students can continue making animated movies at home. There is no easier way to start animating!
