Yay for HD video!
So this stop-motion movie I made is basically just to test out the HD function on Flickr. Of course, I got way to into the whole deal and ended up making a whole "movie" out of it, if you could call it a movie.
I would call this a stop-motion animation of random stuff in my room. There isn’t really a story line or anything so just bear with me and watch the whole thing. You will get to see me making some … interesting … faces, to say the least, as well as a Sigma 70-200mm f/2.8 mounted on a Nikon D40, which looks pretty funny. Hah.
Anyways, the "story line", goes like so:
There’s a traffic jam – the cars get out of the jam – a car swerves out of control trying to avoid a wall made of money – a massive pile up is caused and the money wall is knocked over – the money wall gets mad – the cars try to blend in with their surrounding by changing colors – the money wall eats the cars – the money wall eats some more cars – the 1$ bill turns into a 5$ bill as a result of "eating dinner" – a person picks up the 5$ bill – the person buys a pair of sunglasses – EPICALLY RANDOM MONTAGE OF MY FACE – some planes are flying through the air (first thing I thought of when I put on the aviators) – I trade the sunglasses for a Rolleiflex 2,8F TLR – lens caps take themselves off – I take a picture (not actually, [I’m out of film]) – I trade the TLR for a matted print of Yosemite (taken by me :P) – I hang the print on my wall – I trade the print for an iPod – I refuse to give myself the earphones – I ask for the earphones, or else… – EPICALLY RANDOM MONTAGE OF MY FACE – I play Bejewled on my iPod – SHAKE TO SHUFFLE! – I trade the iPod for a Robosapien – the robot jumps goes and steals the hood from the Sigma 70-200mm f/2.8 – the Robosapien wears the hood like a crown – the Robosapien is chllin’ out and the D40 come for the hood – EPIC BATTLE – the D40 take the hood back – End of lame story!
Here is some of the technical info of the video:
– Photos taken with a Nikon D80
– Total of 1,445 frames
– 15 frames per second
– compressed in QuickTime Pro
– Edited in iMovie ’09
