today we have started filming our stop motion animation for our drugs advert, we have completed our first scene from using the brick house and road sets that i completed the previous week by using sharpie markers and paint where i designed the "psychedelic" or scary surroundings, i originally drew the set out with pencil then started re-working the outline, the set consisted of a moon with a realistic drawing of an eye in the centre of it, a haunted house and a tree stripped of its leaves with blended colours in the background to make it seem strange and twisted. we had a few problems with the road where it wasn't straight on the table and it kept buckling so it was raised from he table and made bumps in the road. The way we found a solution to this was to clip the road to the table so it would lay flat. my main role today was to move the figure along the road a tiny amount each time which we repeated multiple times.
another problem we have had was where the clay figure was getting warm and getting soft so it became unmanageable so we couldn't move it easily so we put our figure in the fridge so it stiffened up. we also set up or second scene set ready to finish it tomorrow.
