// Live for Today
Live for today because tomorrow never comes.
This piece was inspired by the above proverb and was my first, and thus far only, attempt at stop motion. Finding a location to shoot this was challenging. I ended up using a Greater's (an ice cream shop, wonderfully tasty and very popular in Ohio), and although the fictional setting is is a coffee shop, I think this location worked out well for my purposes. I only wish that I was able to shoot it when there were no other people around.
Despite the other people in the shots I really like the way this piece turned out. I had my brother write the music that accompanies it, and I was very impressed, especially since I asked him to start at midnight the day the assignment was due. A big thanks to both my friend Alexa (the woman in the piece) and brother Zach for coming through for me on short notice.
