Dirk and the Pigeon
by Jay
5yrs~ for fun/education, 26wks dedicated to stop motion
2 days animation, 1 day compositing, 2 weeks making set/props/character
A pigeon breaks in and acts like he owns the place; the real question is, how do you get him out?
Stop-motion using paper cut animation and a sock/ball armature with 3D-printed replacement mouths and hands.

The mixture of a stop motion human and a 2D pigeon doesn't quite work. Above average animation for stop motion, though. Top 25% IMO. You put a lot of work into this, and it shows. I like this!

the amount of respect I have for stop motion is through the roof this is incredible

To give myself feedback, I'd move the human character less when the pigeon is talking and change the camera angle slightly to increase focus. Overall, I think it reads well, but I'd also want the human poses to be stronger in places to improve the energy.
