Paint Your Truth

Paint Your Truth - student project

After watching this class and one other class on stop motion I created the following video.

I'm an artist and I make tutorial videos showing people how I create my paintings. I've found that these videos are usually a bit boring and dry, so I wanted to add to my skillset and use stop motion to make my videos more interesting. 

Some of the challenges I encountered were:

-the *&@( mannequin wobbling, not staying still or not being able to put its limbs in the position I wanted to

-adhering the objects (I used blu tack, it worked but especially for the paint tube it was challenging because it was heavy)

-creating a background that wasn't distracting (I used a roll of paper from IKEA and pinned it to the wall)

I'm really happy how this came out and I learned a lot.
