This month I decided to incorporate one of my prompts from a course I’m taking called Creating Time Capsules by Xanthe Berkeley as my 10 on 10 inspiration. Our first project in this course was to create a stop motion film. This is my third class with Xanthe and for some reason in the first two classes I skipped over this assignment. I’m so glad I decided to finally participate and give this a go.
It was fun to capture our afternoon through a series of images and string them together into a little film. I learned that I need to keep my camera a bit steadier and that you actually need quite a few images to make a film…I think this has around 380 stills. I also realized after shooting that my “thread” or common theme throughout the film, is my kids ignoring me….ha ha…yes, seriously. Oh well, life as a mother of teens and tweens.
In any case I hope you enjoy this little glimpse at life at our house after school. It’s filled with snacking, homework, cleaning up the kitchen and once all that is done, a little bit of play. When you are done checking out my little video, please pop on over to see what Michelle has been up to and don’t forget to click through our entire photo circle. 🙂
