Stop Motion Animation: Color Me Sexy

   This is my stop motion video "Color Me Sexy". The video is about a plain white wooden mailbox that gets painted and turned sexy with colors, eyes and a beautiful flower thingy. The conflict of this video is the plain white wooden mailbox that needs color. The resolution is the mailbox being painted.

  This video contains almost 900 photos and it took me about 12 hours to complete because i wanted to make sure when put together, the photos flowed good together. The title alone took me two hours. I drew out, cut and painted every letter for the title and the "By: Katie" paper took a while as well because i had to draw a line, then snap a picture, draw a line, snap a picture. It also took so long because every time i finished a color, i had to hurry and rinse the sponge i was using thoroughly so the colors didn't blend all ugly and stuff. Oh yea and i didn't mention that my cameras built in battery would die like every 20-25 minutes and i would have to take a break and let it charge, and my paint would have dried up by then.

  If i could re-do this, i would have tried to do more with the mailbox, like make mail fly out of it or some crazy stuff. I would also have used a brush instead of a sponge, but I assume that would probably take two times longer.

Well, if you really read this, bless you. I hope you enjoy the video!
