This looks super cool already, love the idea.
The main thing to take it to the next level would be getting the yarn-work itself to stay at exactly the same position in the frame while it grows in size. You could consider marking the floor underneath with some tape so that you know where to place the one corner of the yarn-work. That way it won't shift around so much.
If you really want to get specific you could get a trial of Dragonframe (or obtain it through other ways..) and use your laptop/pc for actual onionskins of the previous frames. It's great software, makes stop-motion a lot of fun.
edit: I'd also consider having your frame a little wider, so that you're ensured to get the entire completed yarn work in the picture when you're done. You can always crop in digitally if you'd like it closer. It would even allow you to add a little digital zoom or pan.
Hot damn! You're a useful dude
The frame was a big mistake, it was a spur of the moment thing so I just put the table under a counter so I could prop my phone on it and I used the stylus button for a remote trigger
The pics were perfect up til I imported them and it cut part off
I'll look into dragonframe! For that I just used "stop motion studio" on my phone. It seems good but also pretty basic
I need a better setup if I keep trying tho, I had to set it up by a window for good lighting
Thanks for your input!
