Reel 04 · Claymation · 4:3
A plasticine fox on a stump in a felt forest. It turns its head to the camera, blinks and smiles, then grows drowsy and dozes off with the same smile. The set, the stump and the body are identical in every start and end frame; only the head and face move.

Claymation stop-motion still: a chubby orange plasticine fox with a white chest and black-tipped ears and paws sits upright on a round mossy clay stump, eyes open and looking off to the left, mouth closed, in a miniature handmade forest set of felt ferns, paper mushrooms and a painted blue sky backdrop, soft warm studio lighting, visible fingerprints in the clay, shallow depth of field, front three-quarter view, the fox fills the middle of the frame
Keep everything in @frame exactly the same: the same plasticine fox sitting in the same pose on the same tree stump, same body, paws, tail, white chest and black ear tips, same felt ferns, paper mushrooms, moss and painted sky, same lighting and framing. Change only the fox head: it has turned to look straight at the camera, both round black eyes looking at the viewer, with a small friendly closed-mouth smile. Clay texture and fingerprints unchanged.
Handmade stop-motion claymation, locked-off medium shot of a chubby orange plasticine fox sitting upright on a tree stump in a miniature felt-and-paper forest set under a painted blue sky, soft warm studio light. The fox sits still looking off to the left for a moment, then its ears twitch once, it turns its head smoothly toward the camera until both round black eyes look straight at us, blinks once, and its mouth curls into a small friendly smile which it holds. Its body, paws and tail stay exactly where they are on the stump and the set does not move. Slightly stepped stop-motion movement, clay texture with fingerprints kept throughout. Camera locked off. Audio: a soft woodland ambience with a few small birds, a gentle squeak of clay as the head turns, a tiny pop on the blink, no music.
Keep everything in @frame exactly the same: the same plasticine fox sitting in the same pose on the same tree stump facing the camera, same body, paws, tail, white chest and black ear tips, same felt ferns, paper mushrooms, moss and painted sky, same lighting and framing. Change only the fox face: both eyes are now closed as two gentle curved lines, as if dozing contentedly, the head tilted very slightly down, with the same small smile. Ears relaxed. Clay texture and fingerprints unchanged.
Handmade stop-motion claymation, locked-off medium shot of a chubby orange plasticine fox sitting upright on a tree stump facing the camera in a miniature felt-and-paper forest set under a painted blue sky, soft warm studio light. The fox looks at us with a small smile, then its eyes narrow and droop as it grows sleepy, its ears relax slightly, and it slowly closes both eyes into two gentle curved lines and settles into a content doze with the same small smile, holding still at the end. Its body, paws and tail stay exactly where they are on the stump and the set does not move. Slightly stepped stop-motion movement, clay texture with fingerprints kept throughout. Camera locked off. Audio: a soft woodland ambience with a few small birds, a tiny sleepy sigh from the fox as its eyes close, no music.
A painted mountain village through one night of snow. Dusk deepens, the chalet windows light up one by one and the first flakes begin to fall; then the snow eases, the sky pales to morning, the lights go out and chimney smoke rises. Each end frame is the same painting with different weather, so nothing on the slope changes. A winter wind and a slow church bell play under both shots.

A locked-off close-up of a woman at the window of a night train. She turns from the dark glass to meet the lens, then a slow smile arrives. Both end frames are edits of their start frame, so the face, the hair and the coat hold across the cut. The clatter of the rails is generated with the picture.
