Today Ben and I began shooting, I have taken numerous images of Ben in many different poses and interactions. We have taken well over 70 images ranging from him walking with the camera panning his moves, Ben being swept away by a wave and Ben sitting down at the edge of a pier. Next lesson we will be taking more images with more shot variety, we need to add a narrative to the song as well, I came up with an idea of Ben/ the character walking through many different scenes such as a town centre, a forest and finally to a pier where a massive wave sweeps him off his feet and drags him underwater. This is where we can add a few edits to make it look like bubbles are coming out of his mouth and fish swim around him, he may swim through a few scenes and finally he may die or he may emotionally/ physically die.
As far as how unique our stop motion video will be I want to add lots of creative ideas such as an image of Ben with his back facing the camera, then on the other side of the printed image will be the front of Ben, so when the camera rotates around him it will look like a complete 360 degrees.
Another idea I had was having a wave crash into ben made of blue, grey and white string, this way we can tug on the string to make it look as if its constantly moving and thrashing around.
