Shooting my Pixelation:

After my intensive storyboarding I decided to get into action, I acquired 2 helpers (my poor friends) and had to organize compensation (buy them pizza), organized a space, lighting and camera. There was a bit of difficulty in getting a camera as the rentable ones downstairs didn't open until 1pm and we had places to be so we settled for using my tablet as the camera. There was a bit of delay in using the photography studio as there was a assessments on but we started working at 10:30.

We got set up in the studio with some additional help, we set up a black background, a desk, two lights, and duct taped my tablet to the table with some more support. I had my storyboarding on the floor next to me as reference.

I had one assistant working the camera (Mae) and the other helping with styling my hair

I changed into a grey shirt, which I had to wear backwards so the print on the front wasn't visible, but it fit a bit weird, it made my chest look massive which wasn't great. I might crop it out. But this is my first image. Anyhow while taking photos I tried making different facial expressions, expressions are hard y'all.

I started off with using a hair dryer to move my hair around before moving onto hair gel.

There was a lot of technical difficulties with following the story boarding as the hair gel refused to keep my hair in the positions I wanted. We did our best to mimic the original drawings but it wasn't happening

I ended up holding down my shirt in a lot of scenes cause my chest looked ridiculous. some shirts are not meant to be worn backwards.

After that we started untangling my hair and brushing it out bit by bit and it was a struggle. It was rock hard from the hair gel.

I started cutting once it was straight enough, I made my hair look like a helmet and all, recording the process from from long to short.

We started shaving after a certain. I actually had to go into the print room next door and stick my head under the tap to wash out some of the hair gel and dry with the towel and hair dryer I had.

I used leftover hair to create a moustache, it was an incredibly dashing moustache at that.

It took us 5 hours with no breaks and we ended up with 657 frames in total.

This is everyone afterwards, very tired, broken. But no worries I made sure they were fed with Super Mac's pizza.

Here's the before and after!!!

Originally while taking these I was going to attempt using different visual techniques but after talking with Paul Tarpy we decided that it would be best to take clean shots and then edit them later.

I plan to put all of these shots onto an animation app and possibly draw on top of them.
