Stop motion cameraless animation

This week we were looking at camera-less animation, at first we were shown a number of clips which contained different methods of camera-less animations such as a zoetrope, praxinoscope and a flipbook, we were placed into groups and given the task of making a zoetrope, which uses mirrors in a circle to create a simple animation. At first we believed we had chosen one of the easier options however it was very difficult to assemble and we were unable to make it work. The mirrors and pictures needed to be in the right position and this was very complicated. In the end we decided upon using four mirrors and eight drawings, this was then placed on a spinning disk, this was then turned quickly and showed a stick man juggling. I think if we had had more time and the mirrors didn't have gaps then it probably would have worked a lot better than it did.
