Filming our Stop Motion


Last Lesson we filmed our stop motion sequence which, after a few mishaps and misjudgments we are now very proud of. At first we had a problem with our lighting set up as we couldn't get the bright vibrant look that we wanted, so in order to rectify this we moved to a completely white room and used two small lights, setting up almost a 3 point lighting system, so we could achieve this look. We tested the lights several times as we couldn't get them perfectly so the vivid colours of our background stood out, however we eventually went with this set up which conveyed a great contrast between the colours we had in frame.

In this lesson we also thought we would be creative, to create a bikini for our barbie ( the desirable figure within our music video. ) We did this in order to emphasise our use of voyeurism within our video, which is key when trying to portray a desirable female. To emphasise this even further, we developed this with a pan up her body, to highlight her 'womanly figure' . This is a convention within typical pop music videos, as their needs to be a sense of female attraction in order to attract the male audience.
