Life, Fragmented - Final Stop-motion Project

Hello to my far and few readers,

This post is the animation project I did for my photography final.  I was my first try at this kind of media, and I am planning on dabbling with it more in the future.  I loved the shooting and editing processes for this piece.

Enjoy,

Scarlet

A quick stop motion from last shoot!

Here is my first try at a short animation!

Stop-Motion Photography

I am currently creating concepts for a couple of animation projects!  Here are some others that have been inspiring me! what i love about these videos, is that they range from ultra casual and kind of mundane as far as the action that happens in them to uber creative and complex. my favorite one is Lost Things. Enjoy!

Recent Portrait Photography

This fall, I have been taking a digital photography class, mostly to get assignments that encourage me to keep up with taking pictures.  The class itself, has not been incredibly challenging, however, I always manage to make my own challenges.  These photos were taken for a portrait assignment.  Although, Rachel, my model, wouldn't normally strip down in public places and wear lingerie and sheer materials, she exudes tremendous body confidence and self love.  These photos are an expression of that and also showcase her body art!

Recent Favorite Photographs!

This specific blog post is about light and community.  The few groupings of photos here use natural and artificial light.  The still of my friend Jessica and her mom was taken on a bus in Los Angeles, and is intended to show the glow of a new mother, but in this case, a mother who has kept the glow alive.  

The next few shots are from a photo shoot done with my friend Rachel that was inspired by abusive relationships. (I was brought to the studio to help with lighting and test shots/ the theme was not my idea)  

The following photographs are from the same shoot with Rachel, but the model in white, is supposed to represent the more "saved" character. (the religious theme really jolted me, in that i had never worked with photographing a scenario before)

These next two shots are from a parade that kicked off the 2010 True False Film Festival.  Columbia, Mo, is an incredible town with awesome community!

That's all for now!
