We filmed the bulk of our footage in Burley Park with a few very appreciated volunteers. We had already discussed and thought about what shots we would like so it didn't take too long to film. It was hard to keep a straight face and take it seriously which might affect future animation...
The stop motion footage took a long time to film but this wasn't unexpected! We ended up starting to film in the afternoon rather than the morning because of timetabling and although it meant we had to stay until around 8pm we stuck to it! We've been so grateful to all our models but especially Wing whose face we painted for six hours. They will be repaid!
This has just been the start of learning new processes. Even though I am not an animator I have been welcomed into the process and taught new skills that I now have a basic understanding of. The filming processes have been shared quite equally in the group. The stop motion idea is basic but I've learned new things such as frame rate and not to wear a red shirt to a photoshoot because it will mess with the lighting!
