Abstract
The stop-motion technique for making animated films is one of the oldest techniques with distinctive visual uniqueness that has a lot of enthusiasts, but the number of stop-motion filmmakers are pale in comparison. One of the expected reasons for the small number of filmmakers, especially on a movie production scale, is that it requires a higher cost and complexity. The characters and sets must be physically made in advance with relatively expensive materials. However, by recycling alternative materials from used objects around us, like inorganic household waste and other reusable materials, the cost and complexity can be minimized. At the same time contributes to the effort of reducing waste from the animation sector. In the previous research, author explored the potential of making stop-motion puppets using alternative materials, resulting in 2 puppets and an entire set for stop-motion animation production. In this paper, author will study the performance of the puppets in the production of stop-motion animation regarding their effectiveness and durability during animation process. This research is qualitative research with the method of collecting data from observations and experiments, guided with checklist forms to maintain objectiveness. The results are gathered from the author’s first-hand experience in producing a short stop-motion animated film titled “ Junk Food”. Finally, the author provides insights on what has worked well with the alternative materials, challenges faced, comparisons with conventional materials, and lessons learned during the process.
