The project aims to create a complete and original stop motion with audio of duration 5-10 seconds.
For this stop motion project, we are required to use assigned "Collage" style to finish our animation.

After several discussion, we had decided to present "Human life" in our project.
The reason of choosing this topic because our life is fruitful and fun.
It just like what feeling we can get from stop motion animation.

Since it is a collage style stop motion, we started our idea from dividing human life to 4 parts.
Then we collected many things from different medias.

After pre-shooting, problems were found.

- Distractinglight sources is out of control and create two shadows
- Limiteddistances between light sources and objects
- Somematerials like magazine cutouts reflected the lights
- Hard to controlthe camera by hand

Then we tried to solve those problems by usinga black flag to block other light sources. besides, we used one strong light to illuminate the object. The opaquematerials were used instead of reflecting things.

Finally we presented our collage stop motion  "Human life" from "Baby", "Youngster", "Middle-age" to "Elderly". :)
