Arachnophobia : three types of claymationMelita Sandrin, 2024, undergraduate thesis
Abstract: My thesis is an observation of the creative process of an animated stop-motion film project, with a focus on claymation. Everything is examined through my experience of working on a diploma film Arachnophobia. This short dwells on the theme of irrational fears through comedic and expressive narrative. It is a personal project that functions as a self-critique by implementing a character which deals with an exaggerated perspective on the fear of spiders.
From the 2-year experience of making and crafting the project, emphasizes the properties of clay as a medium. Other than the main medium, I thoroughly brush through the preparation, production, animation and finalization of the project, including all issues, challenges and solutions that were dealt with as an artistic student. This research introduces the wider topic of animation by looking into the mechanics of claymation as well as the creative decisions that influence the result.
