Slow Zoetrope- Mark Simon Hewis This piece was possibly my favourite from the Ani-Motion exhibit as it showed how stop motion can be used to show life-like events.
The zoetrope moves so slowly and unoften that it looks still; each wheel moves at specific intervals and their alignment is captured by a time lapse camera. When completed, the Slow Zoetrope creates the scene of a family walking past an eternal landscape that grows, blooms, flourishes and dies. The characters on the outer ring of the zoetrope, are created from 3D scans of performers which were resized in 3D software before being screen printed in pure white plastic. The middle ring moves gradually and is timed so that the characters look as if they are walking an endless landscape. The upper ring moves the quickest of the three, this gives the impression of its whizzing around at a fast speed
