DESCRIPTION:
This is the video to our song "A beach, a flag, a doctrine". You can download the song for free from http://www.hremig.com as part of the 'A Watch Means Conditions Are Favourable' EP.

The video is shoddy to say the least. I had never before attempted Stop Motion animation so I downloaded a program and went about it. Regrettably I was not thinking things through. Here are some pointers for those who try similar:

1) Make your scenary stable.
2) Only use Lego characters with Lego scenary because otherwise you have to use loads of sticky tape to try to get them to walk anywhere
3) Always use the same lighting regardless of when you film
4) Only use a good tripod and don't ever ever accidentally jog it.
5) Know exactly what you'll be filming so you make your scenary up to the job.
6) Know exactly what you'll be filming so you don't end up having to 'wing it' midway through.

Watch this video and you'll see I come a cropper on this many many many times. Whoops!
