Stop Motion Experiment

As a group we decided to experiment further with stop motion, to include it into our opening sequence. We decided to go to Marwa's house and spent the afternoon taking pictures of eachother. When we were done we converted the pictures onto imovie, however realised that each photo was 5 seconds long and therefore had to be cut down a large amount. We made each photo 0.03 seconds long, the process was very long because each photo had to be manually cut down, which was very time consuming, however was worth it, as we are very happy with our final product. After watching it a few pictures jumped to the other which has made us aware that for our opening sequence we need to make each movement only have a very small difference to the movement done before. We also made it black and white to give it a certain edge, as the lighting in each photo was quite dark, therefore this effect compliments each photo well. The quality of the photos has been drastically lowered, as we exported the file from imovie to quicktime. We realise that this is a problem and will hopefully use a better software to upload our opening sequence onto.
