Apart from working on Little Mo and Friends, I also freelance in graphic design and media production work. One of our first projects for this year is a music video shoot for local band, Blac Blocs. Shot in stop motion animation.

This is the factory scene, where the workers are working at the assembly line. We made the conveyor belt a day before by putting together a make shift table, some aluminum pieces and black rubber mats. On screen, when cropped, it looked pretty convincing…which was all that mattered to us.

On the day of the shoot, with the help of the band members, we moved each item on the conveyor belt frame by frame. Such is the process for stop motion animation. And if anyone has seen stop motion animation (like the RAC ad on tv), you’ll know that it’s really tough and grueling work and often takes up to two to three days to shoot one scene!

Ours took two days to shoot this factory scene. In my next post, I’ll show you some scenes where we shot inside the studio using green screen.
