I want to try and combine the pixel-stretching method I've been looking at and combine it with stop-motion somehow. Unfortunately I can't find any animations on the internet that have used pixel-stretching in such a way so I've looked at stop-motions that have explored the concept of a 'line' in other ways. I might not end up using the pixel-stretching method at all, but its good to have the knowledge of how it works under my belt.

I have already explored stop motion a bit, I created a few short films over Christmas when researching the 100 brief.

Anyway...



This stop motion illustration was created by painting tiny segments on paper with black paint at a time and then going over it again in white paint using the same method (I think). I really like how most of it is created from one continous line. Its so simple yet so effective, the imagery and music is so soothing and reflecting.

This is a stop-motion by Jen Stark using only paper, not very environmentally friendly... but very creative nonetheless:
