stop motion - minty's prom

My Digital Storytelling professor gave us a challenge to write a story in one sentence and then produce a stop motion video illustrating the story. This video is my interpretation of the sentence I wrote, "She didn't mean to leave her date at the prom, they just had better chemistry." The film was shot with my digital camera and stitched together using Windows Movie Maker.

​

Below the video is the original storyboard for this project, where the concept began to come to life. A few changes were made in the finished product, including an added happy ending for poor Pepsi.

 

This was my first shot at stop motion, and it won “Best Stop Motion Animation” award from the Digital Technology & Culture department, as well as the “Best Animated Film” Jury Award at the 2014 WSU Independent Film Festival.
