I am making stick death movies and these things are great. here is a good one:

I'd say If it were a little bit longer it would be easy...

My younger brother used to make lots of these using HyperCard. Most were very good, but the version of HyperCard I had was old and he could only do it in black and white.

Honestly, it's terrible. I don't like stick drawings in general (zero effort involved), but this is even worse than average. The animation is way too jerky. You need to add 10x the frames at minimum to get even close to smooth enough movement. That and you need to put some effort into doing good drawings, not something I could make in 5 minuites with windows paint.

Here is another one:

This cant be counted as a double post

Sludgewort, as much as I hate to put this somewhere you can actually get post count +1 for posting... we have an art section for a reason. While this barely qualifies as "art" it belongs there more than anywhere else.

Thank you

what about this one...

wow!! thats good!


mine are supposed to look like crap

why would you want yours to look like crap. The whole point of stick animation is so that you can do movies 2-3x longer with the same amount of work as a normal movie. They need to be smooth too.

no,I mean, stick men arnt supposed to look really good. its like a different style,really

Well, you are young aren't you? The humour is not subtle enough for me. But I believe creativity should be encouraged wherever it can be. Set your sights on something a little more challenging next time Sludge!

i`m out of all ideas...nothings there *knocks head*

what did you use to create these?

um....I used windows paint

Very Intiresting. cant say they're the best i've seen but then again, you did use paint...

But maybe they are the best you`ve seen for an 11 year old,eh?



i am 11

Were you by any chance inspired by www.stickdeath.com?

I love stickdeath. I have a better solution.

Since your 11 I can give some good ideas. Less drawings more drugs.................

Then you can see all the dying stickmen you want........in your brain..........when doing math...............on a quiz................

Yep more good advice from ME.......................

Blimey: Mamo, that animation is one of the best I've seen in a long time (I've been away..... heh).

This made me think of a slightly off-topic question: What's the best animation program to use? I have Paintshop Pro 5 and draw in that then copy / paste them into Animationshop which comes with it. It's not particularly good, but adequate.
I'm intending to do more Claymation, ya see..?!

Back on Topic: Stick men are pretty useful. Sludgewort, if you practice perfecting your animations with stick-me.. stick-people (politically-correct ) then you can slowly build up on them - add weight, real bodies, etc.
