Final Project - Stop Motion

LECTURES

Week 9 (Tue, 24 Oct 2023): Assignment brief and instruction

Instruction briefing about assignment format and how do we achieve stop motion effect using camera and Adobe PR/AE. Then, we are required to form a group next week for a trial shooting.

Week 10 (Tue, 31 Oct 2023): Trial shooting

I formed group with Amelia, Socha and Hemesh. By using the material prepared in the photography studio, we decided to do the theme as Halloween.

I_10, Trial practice, week 10

Then, I made the pictures taken into video format.


After the class, we are told that for the following weeks, we are able to book the photography studio if we need it for this project.

INSTRUCTIONS


Final Project - Stop Motion

We are free to choose any theme we want with the criteria below:
- 1080p, 24fps
- about 1 minute
- not more than 2 main characters
- not more than 15 scenes

As the conflict in Palestine between Gaza Hamas and Israel Military is trending in this period, not to forget the ongoing Russia-Ukraine War, I would like to take this chance to spread awareness of stop war no matter what reason.

My idea is emphasise two character, A is living in a peaceful place while B is living in a region with war. I want to emphasise the contrast between this two situation and how others can help in helping victims involved in the war.

Proposal:


I_13.0, Shooting, week 13

I_13.1, Editing using Adobe PR, week 13

REFLECTIONS

Experience:

Feel like go back to the school age as it requires some handcraft skill.

Observations:

It is more difficult than I expected.

Findings:

It's fun but not easy to produce a stop motion video, it takes a lot of time to make it looks smooth and nice.
