A firend of mine did claynation for a school project.  I believe what he found the best was DAS modelling clay.  He found that you could do a number of things with it and that it didn't dry or crack.  Also the detailing he could out in it was fabulous.  When he finished his movie he could then throw the work in the oven and make it hard and put it on a base and put it on a shelf in his workshop.        
     
   HOPE IT HELPS YOU

I'm interested in doing Claymation stuff on my computer and was wondering what sort of clay would be good.  I'm not concerned with colour since I would be digitally colouring them using a paint program.  I am more concerned with texture and lifespsan.  I would nees something that would never dry out and is fairly maliable and not too bright or too dark.  HELP!!!

Thank you very much for the tip!  I was not aware that Das would not harden...  Neat.  I'm still not sure exactly what I'm going to do as far plot ideas go, but what i would like to do is render a background using a 3D ray tracing program and compositing the claymation characters on top.  Most likely it will just be a montage of visuals with a custom soundtrack , kind of like computer animation shows on T.V.  No plot or anything, just neat visual effects and audio...  Thanx again!

Dear Jonathan,
     You made 2 copies of your letter.  Why?  Anyway, I like drawing a lot of different cartoons, mainly on aliens and other science-fiction type characters.  I don't really have anything that inspires me, just that little idea in my head that all of a sudden pops out on paper.  Anyway, I need to reply to a couple other letters so, I am going to have to make this letter short.  Anyway, next time, I should have more time to  reply.  Thanks for writing me, please write back soon.

                                   Your Friend,

Hi again. I just read a message to you from another teacher suggesting that all the early brown bag science experiments might be together in a unit of some sort and that you might possibly send this out by snail mail?  Is that still possible? Is there a fee involved? If this is possible, my address is:
             Margaret Halbeisen
             7 Winter Street
             Easthampton, MA 01027
I like the concept of the brown bag at home experiments and I am trying to put more hands-on experience into the homework I assign in an 8th grade chemistry unit.  THANKS.

I'm sorry if I sounded too demanding; I didn't mean to be.  For some reason, 
my renumberer on my BBS trashed all but about 3 of the messages in this area, 
and I was afraid that I had missed some brown bags in the process.  I don't 
work with the experiments myself much, but I print them out and give them to 
educators around the area (with appropriate credit, of course).

WHAT HAPPENS AFTER THE SOLUTIONS ARE TURNED IN?
Solutions will be examined by evaluators.  Submissions will
be evaluated based on grade level and whether the solution
is an individual or team effort.  Recognition will be
awarded in the following categories: Outstanding Creativity,
Outstanding Solution, Outstanding Effort, Outstanding Team
Work, Outstanding Individual Work, Outstanding Strategy,
Outstanding Problem Format, and Honorable Mention in each
category.  There will also be one overall Sweepstakes
recognition award given every six weeks.  The results will
be posted in same MathMagic where the problems are posted,
and in the MathMagic newsletter published every six weeks.
MATHMAGIC RULES OF CONDUCT
There are some important rules which must be followed as you
participate in MathMagic.  Any violation of these rules will
result in your school group or your MathMagic team being
disqualified from the project.
    1.  No abusive language will be tolerated at any time.
    2.  Communications are to be strictly within your
        MathMagic grade level and any official MathMagic
        personnel.  At no time will any individual or team
        interfere with or harass any other individual or
        team in any way.
    3.  Participants may communicate with other participants
        requesting ideas, sharing thoughts, etc.   In fact,
        this communication is encouraged!!!!
    4.  We encourage you to get to know those participating
        in MathMagic and hope that you will share
        information about each other.  As long as your
        messages include discussion of the problem issued,
        there is no need to refrain from personal
        discussion.
CONCLUSION
You will find many friends in the telecommunications
environment and learn many new things about Math and the
students that you meet.  Enjoy yourself, and thanks for your
participation.

                    GUIDE TO MATHMAGIC
WELCOME TO MATHMAGIC!
WHAT IS MATHMAGIC?
MathMagic allows students from around the world with
students from other schools to solve math problems with each
other using computers and modems to communicate.
WHO MAY PARTICIPATE?
Participation is open to any student in grades K-12, either
on an individual or team basis.  Teams, if desired, may be
formed by teachers incorporating MathMagic in their class-
rooms.  Communication may occur between individual and teams
but solutions will be evaluated in separate categories.
WHAT KIND OF PROBLEMS WILL BE GIVEN?
Problems chosen as MathMagic problems will be based on the
following criteria:
    1.  They capture student interest and imagination.
    2.  The solution is not immediately obvious.
    3.  The problem can be solved using more than one
        strategy.
    4.  The problem is within the computational skill level
        of the student(s).
    5.  The solution time is reasonable.
    6.  There may be more than one solution.
    7.  The solution is defined well enough so that students
        know when a solution has been reached.
NOTE:  Problems may be submitted for consideration by any
and all interested parties by simply addressing them to:

HOW OFTEN WILL WE GET PROBLEMS TO SOLVE?
Problems will be issued during six-week periods called
"problem cycles".  The entire cycle covers the time from the
day you get the problem to the day the problem is due to be
turned in to MathMagic.  A time line will be posted.

When we first got together, we thought this problem would be
real easy. We thought we could get someone else to cut our cake
and then it would be fair to all three. We found out the person
could be a friend and may have given their friend a bigger
piece. Even if they tried to be real fair, they might mess up
and not cut it exactly even.
We decided that we needed a measuring device. We thought of
string, making Y's on the cake , baking one cake per person,
but found that we could use a protractor, a ruler, and a pan
measured for a certain size.
If we used a round cake, we would bake a cake 360 degrees all
around. We divided 360 by 3 and got 120. We used a round
protractor and marked every 120 degrees.
For a rectangular cake, we would use a 48 inch pan, one side
with 6 inches and one side with 8 inches.
 After the cake was baked, we could cut it horizontally with 2 inch widths
in each slice. Then everyone would get one piece.

Andrew Barclift I liked it alot.
Jennifer Spencer Thank you for the problem and I would like to
do another one. THANKS A LOT!
