PLANNING THE SCRABBLE STOP FRAME ANIMATION SHOOT



Back in october, we tried to shoot the stop frame animation scene with the scrabble pieces at wills house. However it was unsuccessful as there was poor natural lighting that day and we needed to artificial lighting to make it seem more vibrant. We are very happy with concept but are planning our second shoot more thoroughly and are going to shoot in a location where the light levels can easily be controlled.


We will use an artificial light to bring out the vibrancy of the shot. We have chosen to use the DT studio because it is well lit and also there are tables large enough to hold the board and enough clear space around to set up the lighting and camera tripod.

We will use a digital SLR camera with a tripod which enables longer exposures without camera shake as this will capture the most detail, this is essential when producing a stop frame animation!

My role will to be in the photography aspect, whilst my partner will assist with the lighting.

The lyrics in the chorus that we are spelling out are:
Yeah yeah and it's okay.
I tie my hands up to a chair so I don't fall that way.
Yeah yeah and I'm alright.
I took a sip of something poison but I'll hold on tight.
