Movie Still

Another project I've been doing is toying with the idea of shooting stop-motion fashion movies using a regular Digital-SLR. This is the final still shot from the short (10 second) movie that I did in the studio today. Not to be confused with shooting 'VIDEO', as in a 'camcorder' or something, what I am doing is actually shooting individual frames (like normal photography work) and then merging them together like stop-motion claymation. It's really an awesome process that gives really *awesome* results (in my opinion) as the quality of the image can be incredibly high (many times higher than even HD-Video) and the depth of field is much shallower than even many film-movie cameras. The catch? It's jerky old-timey 1918 frame rate. Very, very, choppy. But when coupled with fashion- it looks AWESOME. Here's the final frame. I'll post the movie itself sometime soon, but it's beauty so if your in America it's probably Not-Safe-For-Work (au-natural) but if your in Europe, then its not even on par with your average bottled water commercial.
