I have been working in the field of animation for twenty years now, including eight years at Pixar as well as other CG studios. But I started my career in stop motion with five years at Matthews Productions making shows for PBS, ABC and the Disney Channel. Last year I decided to take the stop motion techniques I learned in those early days and apply the animation principles I have learned since. I am now teaching stop motion at the Academy of Art University in San Francisco. This blog is about what I have learned in that process.
