Someone posted this on another board; zipster.com has two xevoz stop-action animation clips for xevoz. The first one is a shorter clip of the ninja and the sledge trooper, then if you click on the movie link, it has a longer clip of the inferno furys vs the razorclaws...very, very cool.

Okay, first let me correct your URL. It's Xipster (with an X, just like Xevoz). ;D I checked it out and this is right up my ally. In fact, I had just bought a new tripod for my webcam, which I use for stop motion animation. I plan on making an entry for the contest and trying for the big money.

I just checked the stop motion xevoz movies. That was SOOO cool. Having done a little bit of stop motion animation myself, I must say a LOT time probably went in the creation of these clips.
Very well done.

I finally had a chance to check those out earlier today, I so wish I had the time to do stuff like that, it would be so freakin cool! I can't wait to see the contest entries, it'd be even better to be able to say "Oh yeah I saw the winner, that was Gearz over from the Xevolution forum"

Nice catch Omega!! I replied here earlier but I moved it into a new thread so as not hijack the Xipster stop motion conversation.

Those are the most amazing things I have ever seen. They're seamless! Who ever made those is a brilliant film maker.
Now this is how I want the show to look.

I wonder how many shots are taken in the process making a clip that lenght. Typically, you're looking at about 26 frames (or "shots") per second. Carl

J-XIPSTER signing on, the director and animator of all things stop-motion at XOW! Thanks for the support and appreciation for the clips we've done so far. Actually we shoot our films at 12 frames per second because on the web, it will run smoother. I'll be wandering around now and then, dropping hints and answering your questions, so don't hesitate to ask! Also, the Sledge Trooper and Shadow Blade clip is part of a whole, soon to come. So keep those eyes peeled and keep animating! Can't wait to see all your clips of awesomeness!

That's very nice! Welcome aboard J-Xipster! I've always loved stop motion. IT'll be great having a person in the know to ask questions to By the way, I cannot wait to see the full version of the shadow blade/sledge trooper movie!

That's great to know there's more to come and that it's only a small part of the whole thing! I can't wait to see more, and as GrayFox said welcome aboard! ;D
