STOP MOTION - MINCRAFT Daily Routine


REFLECTION

Experience

The experience that I have in doing my final project is very exciting and interesting to me as I was allow to explore what story I want for my stop motion project to be about as such as deciding what props characters to use such as clay or dolls where I settled on the Lego minifigures that I have at my house that was perfect for the stop motion, my first experience in doing a video film for the final  project first time is a battle scene of two army where I quickly found it quite hard to do as I gave to move multiple characters, where I decided to a more simpler idea that is a gunfight between two character, but I also quickly found that not interesting enough. So in the end I decided to with a large minifigures build at my house where I apply what I learn from the two attempt.


Observation 

From what I observed in doing the final project stop motion are that writing a story for the film with action scene is quite hard where as the ability to move the character around is not that great I decided to settled on a more simple and relaxing story with a bit of action. As essentially the ability to take the story that one have written and apply in visual film is a great test as the character movement need to match that of the story and environment.  


Findings

What I have found throughout the process of completing my final project stop motion are that it test all the skills that I learn so far in this module such as the sound editing, color correction, setting the environment places to record and many other skills.
