I've never died, I've never tried, but one thing I have done is subscribed.

I just started out in stop motion and I try to refrain from making a minifigure fly or throwing an object because I don't have access to editing right now, this helped a ton!! thanks!

[CKScores]

That's an interesting method I never thought of.

[cookiesdll]

i kinda like being able to see the shadow of the stick. gives it that home-made vibe.
great tutorial

[Misstea]

I never thought of it like that. I don't have much access to computer effects so thank you!

[ImComix]

This helped me so much and I just subscribed, you deserve more subscribers great videos!

I don't make stop motion, but have always been confused by how the mid-air shot were done

[aaln]

Wow. This is really clever. Wonder why I haven’t thought of that. I thought he was going to place something to hold the dynamite on the floor and erase the object later.

This channel is so underated, awesome tutorial, high quality animation. You deserve more subs (just subbed)

[FrutzLovesLegos]

Huh. This was interesting. I'm pretty fast with masking, but I can see why it might be nice to do this option. You make it look amazing. I can't see the stick at all. Thumbs up! Frutz wuz here.

I have never done stop motion and don’t intend to, yet i still feel drawn to this video.

[flintlockwood]

This method is exactly what I'm thinking I'll do for my next project. I've put blue tacks and aluminium wire into my wishlist for some time now. I'm glad to see that the method can really works. Thank you for the video.

[Epicguy_]

Wow really clever. I like stop motion, but I didn’t know how to do this. Then one day this video came into my recommended and I watched it. You, sir are a genius!

[j.isasi_]

I saw this video in recommended and came to see it to get some ideas. Now I’m subscribed 🤣

[phantomfrivolity]

I guess you could say Emmit is a Pratt for catching the dynamite.

... Okay, I'll show myself out now.

[woodiestvoice]

Cant believe its been about 1 year since I first watched your videos. I am making a Stopmotion video right now but I also kind of avoided throwing something because I dont have the fancy technology to make something look like its flying. Now I can just get sticky tack and use that for my videos THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH

[dylanlovesmincraft]

Love your vids ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤you help me so much thank you!!!🙏🙏🙏

[Mrpical]

This video was super helpful thank you I was trying to figure out how my minifigure was gonna throw a Molotov cocktail.

[Ranstone]

Another trick we used to use was a sheet of glass or acrylic. You can stick stuff onto it without the black stick, but take care, as the tacky putty marks must be cleaned off each frame. The result is like no other though.

That’s pretty cool. On the iPad though with stop motion studio there is a tool called erase.
