Stop-Motion with my surroundings
For my Game Art 2 course in my fifth semester, I had to create a game trailer for a hypothetical game which would communicate the genre, theme, and mechanics. This is what I came up with ->
For the creation of this trailer I walked around my apartment and took pictures of everything I could find, bathroom tiles, thumbtacks, pots, plants, fabrics and so on. My hand then became the main character. It needed some serious finger-contortion, but it was really fun!
All title cards were written and photographed one letter at a time as well. The chalk sounds, too! All of them are of the actual corresponding letter being written.
