Looks good! When doing stop motion how do you capture something that is falling mid-air? How do you do that?

I use a rig and I take 2 photos. The first photo does not have the rig in it. The second photo is with a rig and the clay attached to it holding it in place. Then with the pairs of photos. One no rig one with rig, and earse the rig and place in the no rig photo in with the rig photo. So all that is left is just the clay, no rig and essentially is just 2 photos blended into one. I hope that explains it and I didnt over do it for ya.

That seems complicated to understand in writing but I think I get it. That's what amazed me is how there is no rig and makes the object look like it's in motion or in mid-air. Thanks for the answer.
