we used college cannon camera's to take the images. it was just a series of photos taken to show the person/object moving.
object-
take a photo, move it a little bit then take another photo, as so on until u create the final image
person-
take a photo ask them to move how ever you want then take another photo and so on its the same as an object but you don't have to move them yourself :L

what is stop motion?

Stop motion is an animation technique to make a physically manipulated object appear to move on its own. The object is moved in small increments between individually photographed frames, creating the illusion of movement when the series of frames is played as a continuous sequence.

stop motion is used in all clay movies like 

chicken run

wallace and gromit

corps bride

and many many more.

my contact sheets. from the shoot we did outside on stop frame photography.

the video for these images was lost.

in this set of images the people seem to be hovering forward and turning around, it took alot of time to get the images to run together but it looked effective on the final film.

i added a backing tune, which was simple sound effects.

the final film made the people seem to hover forward ect really fast and cause i took the photo's so it didnt show them walking it looks really creepy almost. 

how to work final cut

this is the program you use to create the video's

you drag the images onto this timeline and edit as you want

this is where your images will be you have to drag them to the first video screen to see if there the right images and then to the timeline.

this is where you view your video to see if you want to make any changes.

this is the second window as the first is where you drag your image to see if its the right one.

studio film

this is the video we shot in the studio,
we took the photo's in the studio and then brought them back to the computers and uploaded them. i then uploaded them onto final cut pro and edited and cut the images to make the video flow.
i added sounds to the video and then rendered it.

500 People in 100 Seconds!

i think this is so effective
i love how not only does the person holding the picture change but the actual photo there holding does as well. this would be a great idea to do but would take alot of time and people. i could go out and as random people to hold the photo, but i wouldn't know what the photo could be of or how it would change.

****** The Best Stop Motion Video EVER *****
