- First version of stop frame animation - general consensus in the crit was that it was too fast - should be slower because subject is quite dark and needs to communicate the mood/imprecision of junkie.
- Also the inclusion/suggestion of human presence could have helped make the communication of concept clearer or even trying to squeeze in more motifs linked through aesthetics as this was quite a literal animation of a concept.
- Could have developed by exploring/combining media by adding texture to the fire or changing to a more exciting viewpoint/composition.
I only have time to really remedy one of these points, so I tried to slow it down to 12FPS, but felt it was too slow. Eventually I settled on 16FPS. I also adjusted the brightness/contrast to make the image nicer.
I'm relatively pleased with this stop motion animation despite its simplicity. Only things that bug me are the fact the bending of the spoon isn't that explicit and I forgot to change the fire cut outs at some points, so it stops moving for a few frames at a couple parts.
