Benji's looking for your help with donations towards some new equipment and materials to make his stop motion movies.
Napier, Hawke's Bay
Hi, my name's Benji and I'm passionate about making stop motion movies. I'm 13 and have just started high school. Recently I made an Art Deco model of mice dancing for an art competition and won in my age category. When I took it home I decided to make a stop motion movie with it on my not-so-great quality phone.
I have so many ideas for other movies I want to make for a series about some woodland characters. I have designed and started to make the bendable puppets that will star in these films. The only hurdles I face are; 1. my equipment (my phone is not ideal and my out of date Ipad is far to pixel-y) and 2. the cost of the materials to make the sets and characters. My pocket money would never be enough! I wonder if you could help me raise the money to invest in some materials and a new Ipad, so that I can make some top quality stop motions for everyone to watch.
Thank you for reading my story and please check out my Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/benji_buns_art/
Benji's dream is to raise enough money to purchase a new Ipad and other material costs for the design work, production and filming of his stop motion movies.
Benji is halfway there to achieving his goal! 28 April 2022
Thank you to everyone who has donated towards my Givealittle Campaign! I'm halfway there now and excited to get started on my film. I've started making the first character, and it's going well. His name is Perry and he's a bear who wears a little toadstool hat. I still need to finish his arms and legs and will have changeable eyes and mouths so I can create to illusion that he is talking using stop motion!
To help me raise more funds, please feel free to share my Givealittle page on social media or to your friends! It's a great way to help and I really appreciate it.
Thank you all so much! From Benji x
