My Media Reflection
Describe how to create a stop motion animation? What did you enjoy / dislike about the process? What challenges did you face and how did you overcome these? What would you change if you were to do it again? What other insights did you have while participating in Media Studies this rotation?
First, think of a theme. Then create a story idea. Create your first picture then make a small change, and take another picture. Keep on going until you finish your story. Would recommend choosing music after you've made your stop motion.
Something I enjoyed in media studies is working on the project with my friend Jessica. We had a lot of fun. I disliked the fact that it was just harder than I thought. Also I hadn't done anything like this before, so it was a bit confusing for me.
Some challenges I faced was timing the song with the speed of the pictures. That was because we tried to match our animation to the beat of the song. Also we didn't take enough pictures. To overcome this challenge we restarted and chose the music last.
If I did it again I would make much smaller changes and take a lot more photos.
