Feline Dream

In addition to animation, I've always wanted to make a stop motion. This is my first attempt at making one, and I'm pretty pleased with how it came out. But then again, Ruby is so adorable it would be hard to botch a project featuring her.

The founding idea for this project was to transition from the real world into the dream world, specifically, the dream world of a cat. I wanted the dream world to be quirky and fun, and also hand-made instead of digital.

It was kind of hard getting the star to cooperate with me as far as sleeping and sleeping position and waking up. I really wish I had more time at home to catch her sleeping and shoot this a few more times because I felt like I was making the best with what I had. Even though it is admittedly adorable, I felt like it could have been better if I had more tries.

It's unfortunate how hideous the embedded video looks, all stretched out and whatnot. I promise the actual video isn't that way.
