MCSMS – Episode 17.1

Wednesday, July 29th, 2009

The long-awaited next episode of Mr Cheese’s Stop Motion Show is finally here! Episode 17.1 was made public around an hour ago. The new episode is a follow-on from Episode 17, and continues the wHiteboard touch theme. This time, the first of a series of featured iPhone/iPod touch applications which I deem to be, well, great! The featured app this time is Flight Control, the awesome aircraft landing game from Firemint! I won’t give any more details, you’ll have to watch it yourself! Have fun!

Episode Statistics:

  • Time taken to create:    Approx. 4.5 hours
  • Frames captured:           589
  • Episode length:              1 minute 13 seconds
  • Medium used:                 Whiteboard and dry-wipe markers

Episode Trivia:

  • Despite only being called wHiteboard touch, the device still shows a 3G connection to O2-UK in the status bar.
  • The status bar does not include the time in the centre.
  • In the real Flight Control, not only are the aircraft much slower, but they also turn white once their flight path has been drawn.
  • Although the device goes to sleep at the end of the video because of low battery, at the beginning the battery indicator showed almost 100%.
  • There are six different coloured pens used in the video.
  • During the video, the device starts to move round clockwise, supposedly by itself.

That’s right, folks – Mr Cheese’s Stop Motion Show is now available to watch in High Quality. Every single episode, from Episode 1 right through to Episode 22, can be viewed in crisp detail, newly provided by my excellent host YouTube. It’s not the same as watching in HD, mind – my little webcam can’t handle HD video – but stop complaining! It’s not like you’re paying to watch these videos! Anyway, to watch them in crisper detail, click the little HQ box in the bottom right. You’ll have to wait while another page loads, but I assure you, it’s probably worth it.
