Poster.

Photography: My own.
Edited: www.picnik.com

I chose to use a simple photo that didn't look over crowded with different objects etc and edited it by cha`nging the effect and adding a faded bordered edge and added a block border, i also added simple text to the poster.

I wanted my poster to look unique and different from the ones you see in magazines etc.

My stop motion video

To make my stop motion film i took pictures of each individual word in different locations around Burton, then picked just one picture for each word and then put it into movie maker.




My Video.




I found this task fun and easy to do because you could make a video with your own ideas and getting other ideas from the internet. I liked this task because i could make my own video using my own ideas.

Equipment:
  • Canon EOS 1000D
  • Words
  • Locations
How i did my video:

Each word I had I took pictures of that word in different places around burton, by placing the word on an object, wall, floor etc and taking about 5 or 6 pictures of each word so when I got back to class I could pick 1 picture of each word.

When I found a good picture for each word, I uploaded them onto movie maker, putting them all in order with a picture of the photographer at the end. I timed ecah one so it was going slow that at the last word it word fade onto the photographer, the music I used was a piano piece to make my video look sutle.

Stop motion

This part of the assignment I am finding hard to do, even though there's a lot of good ideas on the internet, but I don't want copy what other people have done. I have a few ideas of what i would like to do, either use old Polaroid photo's from my family album, with a song playing as the picture changes.

For a test shot i have decided to use a quote by a photographer Ansel Adams; "There are always two people in the picture, the viewer and the photographer." How I'm going to do this is have each word cut out and photo each word after its been placed onto the a blank canvas (wall), i might just use the instrumental from a song without the spoken words.

Then for my final stop motion video i will use poloroid pictures from my family album and spell out different words using the photo's, i will draw out an example of how i want my stop motion to look like to give people an idea.
