Lips
I created this video on a Mac in iMovie using Garageband music software. I also created the claymation portions of the video in Windows Movie Maker and saved them as avi files so I could incorporate them in iMovie.
The claymation lips are from my earlier ArtRage digital art (Surreal Lips, Feb 08; Three Lips With Sticks, April 08; and Stage Lips, Feb 08). I printed out the images without the lips and used Sculpy clay material for the black and white lips. To get the illusion of the lips on sticks standing up, I placed everything on a slanted board with the camera and tripod parallel to the image. I took about 200 pictures total for all three claymation sections.
The timing of the music I made in Garageband was just luck. I couldn't tell how long the various tracks were, so I just went by what sounded good. I am happy with it.
