This short sequence was created last summer during a project with vulnerable teenagers in Bath. Although it is more connected to last year's work rather than this, I include it as an example of where I started.

I was also very pleased with the idea behind this work.

The students took photographs in the Sydney Gardens, then used the photograph as a background for simple stop frame animations. They then created music and added sound effects.

The finished moves were included in a mediascape and loaded onto mobile devices. Wandering around the park with one of these, on reaching a spot were a photo was taken, the gps would trigger the movie to play on the device.

This sequence was especially effective as the helicopter sound at the start could as easily be coming from the real world as from the animation.

The teenager who created this animation (and features in it waving in the Sea King) was passionate about these helicopters.
