My Stop Motion Animation

This is  my animation which I made with Nicole on stop motion animation :http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nDhwb2HYKsY&feature=youtu.be

 

I made this video by firstly, thinking of an idea of what to do, me and Nicole came up with a space ship crashing into a castle, once we got the idea we then had to start drawing parts of it, we both slip the parts up, I did the castle and the broken bricks and the clouds and the background, and Nicole did the space ship and the alien. Once we finished drawing we started colouring the pictures in, it took a long time but eventually we started to get the pieces together. With the pieces though we had to cut the arms and the legs off the alien so that we could make it look like it was walking.

Then after we went on I-motion program and we had to set up the film camera and put it on a stand, once we set it up we did a couple of practice’s to get use to the program once we eventually did we started to make our stop motion sequence together. This was tricky because the camera showed the image upside down so we had to work upside down.

We had to move the pictures ever so slightly because if we didn’t move them slightly then the sequence of the alien would be really jumpy, it was also hard because we had to move everything on the page every time we did a shot, like the clouds and the flames, also we had to make the timing right do the explosion.

When we finished the sequence of doing the alien motion we then put the sequence in iMovie, and added different sounds which we thought was appropriate to the sequence, we put sounds over different sounds and we tried making the alien speak, by using an alien voice sound which worked well.
