I presume you black them out with shades, or shoot at night to keep the light levels consistent? Also, I noticed the camera got bumped just before the dolly in. Stuff like that is always an issue with stop motion. Maybe it is fixable in post if you have any extra room in the camera framing. There are no mouths on the characters, a stylistic choice or are you going to add them in post?Joel Fletcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11473257355394926172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-12353358460844289122014-06-03T14:51:47.452-04:002014-06-03T14:51:47.452-04:00I agree with Joshua.

Each card was just so nicely laid out and painted.<br /><br />Personally, nothing could top the Warner Brother's cartoons with the "swooping" sound at the beginning as the logo approaches and the music begins.<br /><br />Personally, I've always been a huge fan of the Fleischer Popeye cartoons with the windswept boat motif and opening and closing doors revealing the title and credits.<br /><br />This is unrelated to title cards but I've always wanted to experiment with the moving backgrounds/3D sets built for some of the Popeye cartoons. The sets were built on a rostrum and rotated frame by frame as each each new cel was exposed in front of it. While this device didn't allow the camera to go into the scene like Disney's Multiplane camera, the illusion of horizontal movement was tremendous.Pierre Fontainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09928175455443075350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-47697701041439157072014-06-03T11:57:32.910-04:002014-06-03T11:57:32.910-04:00Bruce Timm's Batman "The Animated Series&...Bruce Timm's Batman "The Animated Series" had some of the finest title cards Warner Brothers ever produced.
