    Just A Day In ClayWorld 4: Should I do it?

    Just A Day In ClayWorld 4: Should I do it?

    I have written this blog to ask you people a question. I've made three clay movies so far, ranging from novice atttempts at humour to (in my opinion at least) quite well-done pieces of work. So, I ask you: Should I continue it? I ask because I'm really unsure; it's a busy time of my life, and I wonder if I'll be able to finish it. So, to help you decide for me, I'll list some pros and cons.
     
    First off, the bad stuff. Because this is a clay movie, and because I have my exams/revision in store for me, if I do this it will take A VERY LONG TIME. There might be entire months when I don't have the time to do it, or if I just don't want to. I have big plans for JADICW 4, so it seems just a little intimidating to me.
     
    Now, the good stuff. This is a big project of mine, and if I'll be able to pull it off, it will be MASSIVE. If I go along with my sketchy plans, start thinking 10+ minutes and, possibly, splitting it into two sections. I have also purchased some proper camera gear, tripods, remote cable releases, etc, which, while not actually for the clay movies (for my photography instead), will help a lot.
     
    So, there ya have it. Please, please comment saying if you think it should be done or not. I'm in two minds about this. Also, in other news, I'm debating whether to do a "When Chaos Collides 2". I have all the tools, and it takes much less time and effort than it does to do a clay movie, but I'm kind of short on ideas. I have a ton of people wanting to help, but they don't seem to be doing much at the moment :(.
