Ideation of project

1. A training website for stop motion animation or toy films.

The website is targeted towards toy and action figure collectors. Some figure and toy collectors take to video sharing sites such as YouTube to review and make films out of their collections. The website would also address major problems faced in toy video making such as the owner's hands being visible in shots and ways to combine live footage and stop motion animation. The website is also planned to include visual effects and filming techniques carried out in live-action films and incorporate it into toy films.

2. An interactive short film using stop-motion on figurines in my collection.

So far, interactive films featuring figurines and stop-motion animation are quite rare and can be found in YouTube. "Interactive" videos in YouTube usually use clickable links on annotations applied to the videos. Usually, these consist of a series of separate videos, and the plot is non-linear, as viewers can follow varying story lines when choosing options.

Some examples of these videos are:
