Building a Lot in The Sims 4 takes a lot of time and effort and creating a stop motion video for it requires a lot of patience, concentration and skill.
I watch other creators' stop motion videos and everything seems seamless, perfect in fact. I really admire their creativity and the use of the in-game video to switch between rooms, floors and different parts of the build.
"Hollyhocks" is my seventh stop motion video. I took a lot of care and concentration in making it and thought that this is the one that has no mistakes. How wrong I was!
Piecing together the pictures in the video was a doddle and placing the video transitions went really well until I got to the living room. I really don't know what happened but the video transition that I took in that particular part of the build just didn't go for some reason. I reversed the video as normal but one minute I was filming the wall and the next minute the other wall and then the scene changed to the floor where the rug appeared. I thought perhaps that I had got the photos mixed up but nope, they were in order and so were the videos. There's something not quite right here and I cannot for the life of me figure it out.
So anyway, I rectified the video a little with a fade through so it doesn't look too bad. I'm just annoyed that I don't seem to get it right. I took my time and made sure (or so I thought) that I had done everything correctly. I cannot see how I went wrong.
But never mind. If I keep at it then maybe one day I will be able to create the perfect stop motion video!
Hollyhocks is a 2 bedroom, one bathroom property with a living room/dining room, kitchen, hallway and landing. A swimming pool adorns the back garden for family fun in the summertime together with a swing. This property is perfect for a small growing family.
As I made this build before bunk beds came out, the childs room has a small single bed but of course this can be changed to a loft bed or bunk bed if two beds are needed.
You can download this lot from The Sims 4 Gallery - my ID is TotallySimlish.
I would love to know what you think of the build - and the video!
Happy Simming!
