T-Shirt Wars

I was trying to figure out what to blog about, so I went on to YouTube and find a video that had something to do with this class. I found ones called T-Shirt war, a series of stop-motion music videos that I thought were very clever as well as interesting. I really enjoyed the behind-the scenes that were posted because I was able to see how much time went into every individual shot that completed the shoot. It was amazing to see how many people it took to put the whole film together, giving the illusion that the T’s had come to life. I also thought that they sound effects that they made were nice to listen to and kept me engaged in what I was watching which really isn't that the point of a video to get a lot of people to watch it. I hope you guys enjoy it as much as I did.

T-Shirt War Stop Motion

I have always loved this stop motion video. It is fun, creative, and definitely entertaining. I have always wanted to create my own stop motion, but have never had an idea worth pursuing. I also found a behind the scenes of T-Shirt wars, it does not explain too much about the actual editing but the director did mention how they used what is known as an "onion peel" effect to help the actors create the movement to be as realistic as possible. The onion peel was used in a laptop facing the actors to show them the previous frame, but have their new frame in a transparent layer on top of the previous frame. Very cool!
