Animation part 2!! Last minute disision!!

Animation part 2
We spent all but about 3minutes doing iStop motion with our aliens last lesson. We had to come up with ideas for the alien to do, along with our original ideas. The longest part of the animation was getting the hand of the alien 'mover' out of shot before the recorder hit the button. We had to delete many shots as we had hit the button too quickly and there was a hand or a shoe in the shot. We also had many attempts of tipping the plastic tub over, either a hand was in the way or it just fell back on the floor. We fixed this prolblem by making the 'goo' top heavy so all it needed was a little push and it fell over.
The next problem was getting the rest of the 'goo' out of the tub. This was the most time consuming evelent of the whole iStop motion as it took ages to film!! But the result did look good!
Last minute disision
Near the end of the lesson we had a quick disision to add another little bit of live action, someone walks into the room where the aliens are, onto the end of our animation. This was done because we felt the alien should be seen quite quickly by a human, if we were making a full length feature film then it would then go on to the aliens becoming friends with the human who discovered them.
