Stop-Motion STAR WARS Video Features a Jawa Doing a Cover of Van Halen's "Eruption"
I’ve got a completely random Star Wars-themed stop-motion animated video to share with you today. It features a Jawa performing a wicked cover of Van Halen’s “Eruption.”
A Jawa Plays Eruption: A Tribute to Edward Van Halen is exactly that!! This was an extremely FUN way to pay respects to a musical Legend and to also challenge myself to recreate Eddie’s amazing solo, frame by frame via stop motion animation. Is it perfect? Of course not, that’s impossible and nothing ever is :-)
The Jawa is a stop motion puppet I fabricated and the guitar is the 1:4 scale (16inch) Mini Guitar (#EVH-004) that I further customized. The set……well, that’s from/for something entirely different!! Hope you have as fun watching as I had creating :-)
The video was created by Thomas J Yagodinski and you can enjoy it below!
