We did this exercise because we wanted to get to grips with the software and we wanted to get a more concrete idea of what styles of animation we could do for our short film. We experimented with the Software, 'IStopMotion' on an Apple Laptop. We used a 'Copy Stand' to make a brief animation. A 'Copy Stand' consisted of: Flat surface, projected lighting with a video cam corder above it. This experiment unleashed a lot of important questions and the answers would prove very valuable for when we make our actual Animated Film:
What did you learn? One of the most important lessons that I learned was the fact that making a 'Stop Motion' Animation took longer than some people originally thought.
What did you think of your test film? I thought that the test film went reasonably well. There was Team Work, Dedication, Confidence.
What surprised you?
How long did it take? 4 Second Film, took about 20 minutes to make, but that included preparing the film.
How might it affect your project? Timing is going to affect our project. Time Planning is crucial!
What are the implications for your film 'The House'? How has this affected how you plan to make the actual Animated Film?
What else do you need to know or explore to realise the film?
