stop mation notebook

Today we shot the scene for our stop-motion notebook. To do this we used a G-clamp attatched to the camera and the table. We then connected the computer and the camera to enable us to use the I-stop-motion on the Apple Mac. This made it easier to create an affective stop motion without the image jumping too much as we could see where the previous shot was. We then added the stop motion notebook to the track. The shots where first roughly 30 seconds long, so we decided to cut the stop-motion using Final Cut, we cut at the end of the sentence and the page turnover shots. Therefore we could slow down the appropraite shot to fit in with the words. We are pleased with the final result of the notebook and think it fits in well with the theme of our music video. Especially as we added small images one of a heart and the other was a small stick boy and girl with a heart in the centre.
