Developing Further Ideas of Stop Motion

We have thought to use more stop motion in the video as it is very effective and in fitting with the song. We have decided that it would be nice to have a couple of dolls or figures that represent the 2 characters in the video. This will help portray the emotions and actions of the characters in a more comedic way and will help give another dimension to the video.

After having a rummage around our homes, Caroline had found some lego figures which were very fitting with the characters; clothes wise. We thought that they would be easy to work with as they are small enough to photograph and are easily manipulated to show the figures walking or sitting etc. Caroline therefore went to take a series of photo's of the lego figures slowly moving away from each other and showing negativity towards each other. However, once they were uploaded and put on a time line, they didn't work well as the frame wasn't the same in every photo taken, meaning that as it showed the next picture, not only were the lego figures moving, but so were the backgrounds. Caroline had to go and take the pictures again, using the tripod this time to make sure they stayed in the same frame and only the lego figure were to move.
