I'm getting there.
I only have 2 weeks before I finish for good, i'm stressing out a little but I think it helps me work better. I have nearly finished my final piece for my animation. There has been a lot of editing and replacing of sections to create a flowing feel about my stop frame animation. I'm really pleased with the outcome as is the artist whom's track I choose to illustrate. I have a few more bits to edit then i'll finally be finished it.

Photos from animation
Here are a few images I have picked out of my stop animation work as they stand out as pieces of work on there own. These images might not make the final cut though.
Half way there
I am now half way through this project and I’m having a ball, this project gives great satisfaction when the photos are uploaded. I now have a lot of editing to do to prefect my final stop animation. This will probably prove to be more difficult that it seems. (ADD PICS OF CONTACT SHEETS AND ENVELOPS)
Resolving problems
As this is my creative thinking project I want to push some boundaries, experiment more with materials and achieve something i'm happy with.
As I don’t have a studio or proper lights to film my stop frame animation, it is proving to be harder than I thought. I have had to rely on daylight for the main source of lighting. As for props as you can see above, I have been using old pots and pans, books, tri pods, chairs and bottles to help me create this animation. I know if I was fully equip with all useful and studio equipment I wouldn’t be having so much fun. It has caused problems but I’ve managed to resolve them.

When I started
At the start of this project I had so many ideas and got confused on where to start looking for relevant research. It took me a lot of time to get into this project, but now that I have I think I’m going to enjoy it. As it’s my last ever project in Vis Com I want to come away with something I’m really proud of. Hopefully this will build up my confidence if I prove myself to myself.
Storyboard Idea
After rigorous research I came up with a storyboard idea for the track ‘Last time I Take A Bottle On A Date’ by Donal Scullion. At first I thought to create a storyboard explaining the track as an actual story. After creating the storyboard I was unhappy with the out come. I realised that the song’s lyrics are so literal in a sense that I didn’t have to explain the story of the song. By explaining the story the illustration would have became dull and boring. I have decided to take a more abstract approach and this work is still in progress
