A while back I looked at some stop motion films like Evil Dead 2and some films from youtube. Needless to say it has me very interested in learning stop motion. To start me off I looked for some stop motion tutorials online, and let me tell you, for every good one you find you're going to find at least 5 bad ones. By bad I mean that they don't really go into any great detail, were hard to understand, or just had some awful music playing.
If I want to do stop motion then I needed to know where to start off. So while looking for tutorials I came by tutorials4brickfilms. This channel only has two uploads but these two videos detail how your studio should be set up, and what you will need in it and then there's the second video which explains about the lighting procedure.

The first video explains about setting up and filming on a sturdy desk to avoid knocking over objects on film. It goes on to mention that daylight or any other unnecessary lightsource should be blocked out. The second video covers what lamps and bulbs you should use for good results. It also suggets not wearing white or light coloured clothes because if you move it could cause light flicker.
What I like about these is that it shows me how I could do this with a small budget which is a big factor to me.
