Steady Progression

Last week Ben and I was able to get a lot more still images, we now have around 200 images including some of Ben's acting underwater, more walking poses and a pan of Ben. This way we can now use and reuse some of the poses like him walking and swimming underwater.
This week Ben and I were able to print off a hefty amount of images which seemed to take forever due to the data size being sent to the printer. Eventually we were able to begin cutting around the images of Ben, we ensured that when we cut around him we didn't cut it to lean/ close to the character instead we left a small space. I did this because it gives an impression to the audience of a childish, playful and quite simple appearance, It also makes it quite obvious that this is a stop motion picture which is the effect that we want to apply to the audience. Next week we will finish cutting out the images and then we can begin setting up oour backgrounds and apply the images to the background to create a journey.
