Making of a Stop Motion Animation “Bioscope"

Abstract

Nowadays our Bengali culture has lost many of its glorious events and traditions. In this project we are trying to show some of these lost events and traditions through a stop motion animated short film “Bioscope”. We choose this project to show our love and respect towards our culture and heritage and also to show our skills of crafting, recycling, stop motion animation making and visual arts in this project. As we know, stop motion is not so popular and well introduced in Bangladeshi animation industry. So, we took this challenge to show our skills in making this particular type of animation and want to introduce this technique in our animation industry and to remember our lost heritage. In our project, the story starts with a Puthi path ashor following with some other traditional events that we lost. So, our main goal is to introduce our lost Bengali cultural heritage and tradition through a stop motion animation named “Bioscope”.
