Hello everyone! I want to share my clay motion project with you.

Claygraph is an animated English alphabet comprising 22 claymation-style characters, 10 numbers, and 52 uppercase and lowercase letters.

I created the Claygraph font using Adobe Illustrator in July 2022, and it's ready to use on computers in various editors, websites, and applications. Right after its creation, I planned to animate it, but I only realized the project in early 2024.

On January 28, 2024, I completed the claymation animation of the Claygraph font:

Total frames shot: 843
Production time: 73 hours
Post-production time: 30 hours
Resolution for each character area: 1000x1116 px (resolution can be increased)
Software used: Dragonframe, After Effects, Photoshop, Illustrator
Camera: Canon R + Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L IS USM Macro
Production location: my home studio
Animation technique: claymation

The project is implemented in After Effects in two variants. The first is manual, where editing is done manually based on video footage with an alpha channel. The second variant, automated with convenient and fast editing scripts, is still undergoing refinement and optimization. The completion time is not yet certain as additional financial investments are required.

If you want to commission me to produce a clay-animated font, you can check out my service pricing on Fiverr.
If you're going to purchase the ClayGraph animated font, please send me a direct message, and we can discuss it further.

Overall, this project presented significant challenges, primarily due to unforeseen life circumstances, but I'm incredibly pleased that I could complete it. I'd love to hear your feedback in the comments, and if you have any questions, I'm happy to answer them.

Warm regards, Magshifter
