Jumping frogs is our first animation, followed by Fish eating Fish, both were printed on a Form2.
More animations are coming - stay tuned!
Note: for filming - we use high speed shutter and match carousel rotation speed to the camera fps (you can see me adjust the carousel speed on the phone app).
In person, 4-Mation uses strobes - 24 x 3Watts - but strobes do not film well - so we turn them off and use shutter speed instead.

I wonder if they'll have a subscription model allowing people with their own 3d printers to print updates/new models.
