About the Project:
I have always loved and been interested in animation and stop motion, therefore, I was really curious to give it a go myself.
Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy is a short choreography piece, where matchboxes turn into a spaceship and spin around with the stars.Since the film was made in 24 frames per second, it took me around 900 pictures to complete the project. In terms of production, I used my DSLR camera on a tripod and had black paper sheets placed on the floor to substitute as a background. I then overlayed the star effect in post-production.
The making of Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy has broadened my creativity and perspective on filmmaking. It enabled me to see that even ordinary objects can be very interesting to eye if used creatively.
