iStopMotion Practice

2 weeks ago Brianna and I  practiced using iStopMotion. Sadly i am having technically difficulties and it is not being able to upload. Soooo i will tell you the basic outline of what happens. it starts off with a variety of different coloured texters sliding on from the left. they then start to clip to each other. they are then shown making a circle lying on the floor. finally they form a circle standing on the floor. although we had a minor mistake were the testers fell down during filming so it is a bit rough. overall though i think that the iStopMotion practice went well and i am glad to be using iStopMotion as the main filming technique for lauren and I's movie.

Reflection

Yesterday, Lauren and I started to make our claymaiton characters. so far we have made the body, clothing and face for our boy ( the main character) we have also made the set and paper props. We now just have the other claymation props like the police man and ladder left to make. Hopefully we will be starting filming soon! cant wait to start making our movie :-)
