Stop motion with real people


This is my first try using real people in a stop motion. Its not quite finished as I think it needs some sounds or music to go over it.

The ballroom dance steps





The cha cha dance steps



The Yemen dance steps




The waltz dance steps



The hara dance steps



The fox trot dance steps




 The kalamatiano dance steps




Here are some foot print dance steps that I will be using in my 'V&A Friday Late'
I think I will use the Jewish dances Hara and Yemen as these seem to be the ones that look most interesting and fun.

FMP- I can't sketch so I sew!

For my final major project I am going to be 'putting on' a V&A Friday Late to promote the up and coming 2013 wedding dress exhibition. I will be using traditions and rituals from all over the world to create a fun and exciting event.....

I can't sketch so I sew!!

Here are some of my ideas shown as sewn images...
          











All of these images show, in a fun light, tradition or ritual around the world.

The first image represents a Strictly Come Dancing set up on judging a couples 'first dance'
The image next to this shows an oversized piece of confetti in the style of the game piƱata
Under this shows a jewellers which would be in a window of the V&A
Next shows a bouquet throwing and catching classes which would be played in the grounds of the V&A
The fifth image shows a walkway in which confetti could randomly fall along with sounds of cheering
Next to this is the 20p machine which will be placed in the V&A and filled with rings
Underneath this is a catwalk for the gypsy wedding dresses
Next sketch represents a smashing noise which would go off in the ceramics room along with 'mozel tov!'
The final image shows a 'pin the money on the dress' game taken from the game 'pin the tale on the donkey'
