stop motion

For our task we were told to get into groups and create a stop motion in the studio.

Our idea for a stop motion was rather simple, a person falling through the sky with an umbrella, almost like Mary Poppins in a way.

The basic idea for this shot was to have the person not to move, but have the clouds moving down to give the illusion of movement.

To give it tat extra realistic effect we used a fan to blow the hair to make it feel like they would actually be falling.

We had to take into consideration that we were in a studio, it was ours and the camera mans job to not have any white show up in the shot, another thing is that none of the 'crew' show up in the shot either.

The lighting that we used was quite a long rectangular light, this was to project a lot of light onto the person, the main reason this was used was to create realistic lighting in a studio environment.
