LAUAN503 - Weekly 11


Tale Telling


This week we are continuing shooting. Issues occurred were when we wanted to borrow some equipment from the Photography or AV suite because of the Christmas loans that were already in place.

Other obstacle was that Zhama and I both have job outside of the University what did not help with the CoP intern deadline and pressure of finishing the Stop Motion by the end of this week.

However, we did our best to distribute the scenes so that we could be shooting 'non-stop'. :)

We had to adjust some scenes because of the limitations of the equipment and the puppet, as well as time. Also we left the blood scene to be the last as the paint imitating the blood would stay permanently on the set.

When I was finishing off one of the scenes animating, for the sake of time efficiency I also set up the next scene for the next day that was Zhama's to animate. Yet we did not have the Interviewer puppet that was going to show in the shot. So I made this tripod-puppet. Because when I made a rough head and tried positioning it within the set, it was too close and obstructing the scene and I was not sure how to hold it in place. Using the tripod allowed me to move it around and adjust the height. Also it was flexible for Zhama to move it around if he needed in the next scene.

In the end, we finished shooting before the Christmas break in just under a week time. :)
Zhama will be doing the post production editing and sound and I will be focusing on the production log.
