Stop Motion

The stop motion film will be our last project for working in digital media.

After trying to decide on an idea for a number of weeks we finally decided to create a script using famous movie qoutes and shoot it with two action men acting out the qoutes.

It was an immensly difficult project and I would be happy never doing stop motion again, that said I am happy woth how everything turned out and the overall look of the piece.

The set itself took four days to create and was  very difficult t0 work around from the couch we made from childrens building blocks that kept falling apart to the gun rack which kept falling. All this though was taken in good humour and is was fun creating the set.

I was given the role of taking the pictures for the entire piece and i apologise for how jumpy the first have of the film is as we had to film without the use of a tripod.

Putting the images into flash proved more of a challenge than we had originally anticapted, as flash decided to crash every five minutes. Eventually though we got all 500 pictures in and were able to put audio to the piece, which were the qoutes from the actors themselves as they said it in thier respective films.

Stop motion I learned is difficult to do yet if done right can look amazing.
