Little boxes


When i originally embarked on this short stop frame, it was meant as a light hearted attempt to show the repetitive nature of life. I originally started out with the intention of having a conveyor belt with little figurines starting off as children and getting older and older until they where finally dumped off the conveyor belt in to a black box- nicely subtle ;) however i hit more than a few bumps on the road. Trying to get figures to stay on a conveyor belt made from black instillation tape, a ruler and some elastic bands didn't really work out- plus i am quite limited in the figures that i can use- as i am buying them rather than making, i get a choice of three different ages- school child- adult and holding a walking stick. 
 The audio for this film is little boxes, which wasn't my original intention the finished piece does however come across as a visualisation of the song- which whilst i don't necessarily feel that this is a bad thing it was not my intended aim
