Animated Doctor Octopus

Animated Doctor Octopus

I’m trying to improve my skills at doing product photography and wanted to show that I can do those 360 degree product shots. Doc Oc is a good subject, as he rotates it looks as though his mechanical arms are moving!

To create this image I had to first make my own turn-table (four sheets of mount board and a drawing pin!), take 32 separate images of Doc Oc process them in Lightroom, create photoshop layers and a photoshop animation out of them. Which could then be saved as an animated gif.
