The Seed By Johnny Kelly

To promote it’s Creative Suite 4 software package, Adobe generously funded the making of ‘The Seed’, a well crafted short stop motion animation directed by Johnny Kelly from London, England in the UK. The Seed is about the tribulations of a humble apple seed. The two minutes animated movie will take us along the journey of an apple seed through its natural life cycle. The stop motion animation was made using a mixture of stop motion papercraft and 2D drawn animation. Brilliant work!

Of course after watching the short movie, we all would wonder and ask: How did they do that? The answers are in the video below with a collection of video clips, storyboards and images taken during the making of the short animated movie.

I like this art. Very postmodern at the same time very constructive. Nice.

Stop motion photography always trips me out! This is ultra creative and so cool!

Wow, the movie looks neat and I watch it without a critical eye. And then I see what it takes to fold one piece of the elaborate puzzle they made for just one scene and I think: Holy Smokes, these people have a lot of patience! Amazing stuff.

Stop motion has become a lot easier than the manual stuff we use to do way back. Technology can now allow us to simply film something and later on edit the footage to make it stop motion. Great video. lots of skills
