I made this flower bed out of green flanle and the flowers made out of ballons.
For the planting scene I used a mirror to potray water and just so the ceiling wouldn't be in view I made sure the colourful scriblely sky was in view which was effectivly on an A1 Piece of paper which I moved slightly back and fourth to convey water moving, rippling and reflecting.

For the scene where a whole body shot wasnt nessacery I made the contraption above and the hand was adjustable so I could animate just the hand.

STOP MOTION




This is the finial cut of the video which I felt worked quite well with the 3d stop motion and the pixelation which we split our group in half t0 do as half of the group wanted to try one style and the other half the other which feel worked brilliantly. The sound affect were all acapella using peoples voice from the group trying different sound affect on top of each other and editing volume to fit the mood which for this certain animation felt right.

In the above i feel that we did really well with the zooming out shot, how ever I feel some one thing that let us down was the lighting through your notice that it moves, the reason for this is because we put the octopus in to late which meant I was conscious that this character would be in the dark and deciding to try and gradually change the lighting effectively gave this scene a poorly controlled lighting. I was extremely please with the walk cycle as I thought Marcin did an excellent job with the animating and was also very happy with the scenery which we all shared efforts in producing.
