I've been working slowly but surely on my final video stop motion project. It's based off of a song by Regina Spektor entitled "Two Birds on a Wire." The concept is two people speaking to each other on can phones across from apartment buildings, and how there's missed connections. I used watercolors and painted all the set pieces (apartment buildings, people, can phones, etc.) and just used a blue towel as the backdrop. I took about 180 photographs with a Canon SLR and set them up in my dorm lounge, shifting the pieces a little each time to get the animated, stop motion effect. Today I resized all my photos so I can add them into final cut, as well as added the song I'm using to my flashdrive so I can plug that in tomorrow. My story board is finished, I will probably scan that and post it here sometime at the end of this week/early next week. Here are some of my favorite shots so far from my photos:
