Narrative Stage 1 (Part 1, 2 and 3)

After a friend who persistently told me to upload these videos I finally budged and here they are, in one short clip.

Part 1 - High Speed Chair Race
I've already posted this video but just to add it was made in the Waverley building, it took about and hour to complete (maybe less) and fades out because just after that scene the movements were far too jittery to pass as a decent stop motion film. The music is in a genre called Math Metal; I think it intensifies the speed and subject of competition between the two racers.

Part 2 - Bin Illusion
I liked the idea behind this film the most because it was very simple and effective. I chose the music Air - Run because by sheer coincidence I was listening to the song at the time I was watching the video. I think it fits very well because the timing is great and it also has no lyrics (or at least that snip), which won't distract the audience from what occurs in the film.

Part 3 - The End
This was a filler scene. We wanted a final piece to end what we had shot so far and The End seemd most appropriate. I also like this because it is again playing around with the idea that stop motion can create many illusions. The music is Gong - Foolefare because I needed a very short song and this worked very well.

With all of these videos I think that we didn't put enough time and effort into our movements; we should've moved much more slowly because it would have made the films a lot more smooth and easier (on the brain) to watch! By the way I hope this all makes sense, i'm tired and I can only be bothered to write this like a beatnik (and I'm not using the word pejoratively).
